The global machine vision technology market is exhibiting a CAGR of 8.40% between 2015 and 2021. Should this growth rate be consistent, the market can be expected to reach US$28.5 bn by 2021, after being recorded at US$15.7 bn in 2014

Albany, NY -- (SBWire) -- 02/22/2017 --Machine vision technology is used to provide imaging based automatic inspection, robot guidance and process control. It utilizes one or more cameras, converting analog to digital and digital processing system. The machine vision technology is rapidly replacing the manual inspection and measurements with image processing and smart cameras. These smart cameras do not require any computer and run and function independently. Moreover, adoption of this system in industrial as well as in non-industrial sector is expected to escalate the demand and growth of this market.

Shift in demand of technology towards automation is one of the important factors driving this market. Machine vision technology helps in auto defect detection, quality inspection, tolerance monitoring and component measurement. Another driving factor of this market includes global increase in manufacturing sectors. Machine vision is largely used in manufacturing sectors for the inspection of microchips, resistors and components. In automotive industries, this technology is used for welding quality check, detecting defects and inspecting engine blocks. Therefore, increasing implementation of this technology in the manufacturing sector is driving the growth of this market.
