Research and Markets: Global Machine Vision and Vision Guided Robotics Market - a Comprehensive Report with Forecasts Through to 2014

DUBLIN--(Business Wire)--
Research and Markets
(http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/e40327/global_machine_vis) has
announced the addition of the "Global Machine Vision and Vision Guided Robotics
Market (2009 - 2014)" report to their offering.

Machine vision is an automated technology where images are captured and
transferred to the PC and processed thereafter, for inspection and reporting of
the processed results. These systems have increasingly become more powerful
while at the same time easy to use. Recent advancements in the machine vision
technology, such as smart cameras and vision guided robotics, has increased the
scope of the machine vision market for a wider application in the industrial and
non-industrial sectors. Asia Pacific market is expected to grow faster. The
European market is expected to grow better than the U.S. mainly due to the
impact of the recent economic crisis in the U.S.

Traffic and security are the two application areas having high growth potential.
The applications such as automatic number plate recognition, traffic flow
monitoring, traffic surveillance and other related applications are witnessing
more integration and utilization of machine vision systems. In the recent
economic turmoil, badly hit application areas such as automotive and
semiconductors are witnessing less demand, while medical and infrastructure
industries are witnessing steady growth. The report also analyzes the impact of
infrastructure slow down on the machine vision market.

The report focuses on machine vision hardware and software included in vision
systems, such as those found in smart cameras and compact vision systems. The
improvement in this area is a major driving factor for the overall growth of
machine vision market. The report also focuses on the fast-growing component
markets including cameras, optics, and vision software.

This report covers the impact of machine vision systems and its use in the
non-industrial sector. It also measures its impact on the associated machine
vision technologies.
