Smart Camera: Revolutionizing Visual Perception with Computer Vision

In addition to being able to extract application-specific information from the images that are captured, a machine vision system that is referred to as a smart camera (sensor), intelligent camera (sensor), (smart) vision sensor, intelligent vision sensor, smart optical sensor, intelligent optical sensor, smart visual sensor, or intelligent visual sensor is also capable of generating event descriptions or making decisions that are utilized in an intelligent and automated system. There are many different types of machine vision systems. A smart camera is a vision system that is self-contained and operated independently. It is housed within the casing of an industrial video camera and has an image sensor integrated in. There is the possibility of integrating the vision system and the image sensor into a single piece of hardware that is referred to as an intelligent image sensor or smart image sensor together. In addition to having all of the necessary communication connections, such as Ethernet, it also has industry-proof 24V I/O lines that can be used to link to a programmable logic controller (PLC), actuators, relays, or pneumatic valves. These lines can be either static or movable.It does not necessary have to be larger than a surveillance camera or an industrial camera. In the field of machine vision, the term "capability" typically refers to a level of development that has reached the point where the capabilities are ready to be utilized on specific applications. When compared to vision systems that are based on personal computers, this design has the advantage of having a smaller volume and frequently achieving cheaper costs. However, this comes at the expense of a user interface that is relatively simpler or even absent altogether. In addition to being referred to by the more broad term "smart sensors," smart cameras are also in use.
