Cognex In-Sight® vision systems are unmatched in their ability to inspect, identify and guide parts. These self-contained, industrial grade vision systems combine a library of advanced vision tools with high-speed image acquisition and processing. Best of all, configuring and deploying an In-Sight vision system has never been easier.

The Checker® 4G vision sensor is an award-winning all-in-one industrial sensor with built-in camera, processor, lighting, optics and I/O capable of detecting and inspecting up to 6,000 parts per minute - all in an industrial IP67 enclosure small enough to fit into the tightest of spaces.
