In an effort to gain a better understanding of where vendors in the vision and image processing community stand, we conducted an online study of more than 550 members of our global audience.
Those who responded described their organization’s business as one of the following: an end user of vision and/or image processing systems, independent systems integrator, or manufacturer of turnkey vision or image processing systems. For each product category, we asked qualified respondents involved in purchasing decisions a number of questions related to vendor recognition and overall purchasing tendencies.
One item of particular interest here is the fact that the number one criteria for our audience, when it comes to making recommendations or buying decisions on products and services, was quality.
From there, the study asks a number of questions related to vision and image processing products and vendors, including which companies come to mind first when you think of:
- Machine vision software
- Industrial cameras
- Lighting and illumination
- Optics and lenses
Some of the results, as it turned out, were a bit surprising this year. If you are a vendor within the machine vision and image processing community and would like to learn more about this study, please contact Judy Leger for more information.
