The characteristic of robot vision system is to improve production efficiency and factory automation technology level in production and manufacturing. In some hazardous working environments that are not suitable for manual operation, or where manual detection results cannot meet production efficiency requirements, as well as misjudgments caused by visual fatigue, in order to solve these problems, robot vision detection is commonly used to replace manual detection; At the same time, in the large-scale industrial production process, the efficiency and precision of manually detecting product quality are low. Using machine vision inspection equipment can further improve productivity and the level of fully automated production technology. And robot vision facilitates the integration of information content, which is the basic technical requirement for the integrated production and manufacturing of electronic computers.

There are five key factors in applying robot vision systems:
Repeatability - Robots can repeatedly complete sample testing work 24 hours in the same way without feeling tired. On the contrary, every time the human eye detects a product, there will be slight differences, even if the product is identical.

Accuracy - Due to the physical limitations of human eyes, machines have significant advantages in accuracy. Even if the human eye relies on a magnifying glass or microscope to detect products, the machine will still be more accurate because its accuracy can reach one thousandth of an inch.

The processing speed of robots can detect products faster. Especially when detecting high-speed moving objects on the production line, compared to traditional manual detection, machines can improve production efficiency.

Objectivity - There is also a fatal flaw in human eye detection, which is the subjectivity brought about by emotions. The detection results will vary with the quality of workers' emotions, while machines do not have emotions, so the detection results are naturally very considerable and reliable.

Cost - Due to the faster processing speed of robots than humans, an automatic detection machine can undertake tasks for several people. And the machine does not need to stop, does not get sick, and can work continuously, so it can greatly improve production efficiency.
