Cognex offers the widest range of industrial machine vision systems and barcode readers available from a single source. Every day more than one billion consumer products are manufactured under the careful scrutiny of Cognex technology. And that’s no spoof! Here are our real product categories:

ID Products
DataMan barcode readers read 1-D barcodes and 2-D Data Matrix codes on parts and packages during the manufacturing and distribution process to identify and track items and to ensure the appropriate processes are performed on the right items and in the correct sequence.

Vision Systems
In-Sight systems are powerful, self-contained products with a simple and flexible interface for configuring all kinds of vision applications.

Vision Software
VisionPro is a comprehensive library of Cognex vision software tools that customers load and run on computers of their choice to create customized vision systems.

Vision Sensors
Checker sensors perform single-function vision tasks, such as determining the presence or absence of parts in an assembly.

Surface Inspection Systems
Smart View® systems detect and classify surface irregularities or defects on the surface of materials processed at high speeds in a continuous fashion. SmartAdvisor® web monitoring technology helps manufacturers review quality issues on multiple cameras at once, saving valuable analysis time and helping them get to the root cause even faster. Integrating SmartView and SmartAdvisor into a total vision platform allows customers to track their web quality issues to the source.
