Cognex® Corporation has announced that it has released two new products, the Advantage™ 100 vision system and the AE2 Advantage engine designed for integration into Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) devices and equipment. OEM equipment designers can now take full advantage of powerful Cognex vision and code reading technology in even the most space-constrained and cost-sensitive applications such as those in the clinical diagnostic, printing, kiosk or medical device industries.

The Advantage 100 vision system is a compact (23mm x 44mm x 54mm), enclosed vision system with customizable optics, lighting and Ethernet communications suitable for integration into large automated clinical diagnostic systems.

The AE2 Advantage vision engine provides an even smaller (14.5mm x 29.1mm x 20.5mm) form factor designed for tight integration deep inside the enclosure of OEM devices manufactured in high volumes such as medical instruments and printers.
