Determining whether to apply lights in a bright field versus dark field geometry is one of the more difficult decisions facing Machine Vision engineers. Both techniques have advantages and disadvantages: in this blog, we will concentrate on a comparison between the two using common vision applications.

When selecting individual components for or investing in turn-key machine vision systems, acceptable performance, system longevity, and cost are always high priorities. Other factors you should consider in the earliest stages of designing a machine vision system: thermal management and heat dissipation.

SignaTech (Signature Technology) is Advanced illumination’s proprietary control system that allows our LED illuminators in machine vision systems to operate at maximum output under all operating conditions, while protecting the light head from damage. The SignaTech Control System allows pulsing of certain LEDs up to 50x overdrive currents while still maintaining the highest flux output and longest lifetime of the LEDs.

In machine vision, backlighting is one of the most common and useful lighting techniques. However, incorporating backlighting into machine vision systems can be difficult, primarily because component placement geometry requires access to the part top and bottom (or front and back) for the camera and backlight.
