New ARC Research: Machine Vision Essential Technology for Smart Manufacturing

New ARC Advisory Group research on the machine vision market reveals that this has become an essential technology for building smart manufacturing infrastructure. Integrating machine learning (ML) with machine vision drives operational efficiencies, accelerates inspection processes, and increases productivity to a significant degree.

“Machine vision and machine learning technologies can now be deployed cost-effectively in a wide range of applications to enhance industrial automation and enable robust inspection processes. As manufacturers make the transition to the smart connected factory, this will be increasingly critical for both production and quality inspection operations,” according to Anju Ajaykumar, Analyst at ARC Advisory Group and key author of ARC’s Machine Vision Systems Global Market Research report.

“End users are looking to do more with the data they collect from vision solutions. No longer is the data merely used for inspection or gauging and then discarded. Users need not only to identify the best product for an application, but also one that can be easily and completely integrated into the operation,” added Ms. Ajaykumar.
