The annual VISION event is an international trade fair for machine-vision and identification technologies, including exhibits in the areas of components, measuring equipment, image-processing systems, and services. VISION 2010 was the most successful VISION to date, with 323 exhibitors breaking the 300 mark for the first time as well as setting a new visitor record of 6,752 highly qualified visitors.

VISION has become the main trade fair of the year for many exhibitors. In addition to the high-tech exhibition, it also contains an extensive first-class accompanying programme relating to advanced training. Over 300 exhibitors, of whom more than 40 per come from abroad, will present their innovations in the area of image acquisition and machine vision during VISION 2011. These innovations will include cameras, vision sensors, frame grabbers, software tools, illumination systems, lenses, accessories, complete systems, innovative application solutions and services. Some exhibitor highlights will be used as examples to demonstrate the trends which are now emerging in machine vision.

Key exhibition areas:

• Machine vision systems
• Machine vision components
• Services

The machine vision industry is opening up more and more application areas in the non-industrial sector. VISION 2011 will examine this trend and focus for the first time on medical technology as an upcoming application area.

VISION 2011 will also again feature an International Pavilion for first-time exhibitors from abroad, a group stand funded by the German Ministry of Economics (BMWi) for innovative young enterprises from Germany and the presentation of the 19th VISION Award for outstanding achievements in machine vision.
