Ring Lights

A ring light provides diffused illumination over a small area. With the lens axis through the center opening of the ring light assembly, the ring light illuminates the area directly in front of the camera.

Area Lights

An area light provides even illumination in a concentrated area. Well-placed area lights can create shadows and glare, allowing the vision sensor to detect the presence or absence of a feature.

Backlights

A backlight provides even, low-intensity light. It is placed behind the target and aimed directly back towards the camera. The resulting silhouette can be inspected for proper size and shape.

Spot Lights

A spot light provides extremely bright, even light with a single high-powered LED. Well-placed spot lights can create shadows and glare, allowing the vision sensor to detect the presence or absence of a feature.

Tubular Fluorescent Lights

Tubular fluoresent lights provide easy, affordable, flicker free illumination of large objects.

Low-Angle Ring Lights

Low-angle lighting enhances the contrast of surface features. The low-angle light is aimed nearly perpendicular to the imaged surface of the target object, casting shadows that emphasize changes in elevation.

On-Axis Lights

On-axis lighting provides even, diffused illumination for flat, reflective surfaces. A beam splitter directs the light rays along the same axis as the camera lens. Reflective surfaces perpendicular to the camera appear bright. Surfaces at an angle to the camera and non-reflective surfaces appear dark.

Highly Diffused Lights

A highly diffused specialty light source illuminates a target from many directions, eliminating shadows or glare.
