Dublin, April 08, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Vision Sensor Market by Sensor Type, Application, End-User Industry, and Geography - Global Forecast to 2023" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The vision sensor market is expected to grow from USD 2.5 billion in 2018 to USD 4.5 billion by 2023-growing at a CAGR of 12.20%

Key factors driving the growth of the vision sensor market include the growth of the electronic and electrical industry, the use of machine vision technology in the automotive industry, and the focus of manufacturing companies on cost and time savings. Strategies such as product launches and developments, mergers and acquisitions, expansions, agreements, collaborations, joint ventures, and partnerships adopted by market players are fueling the growth of the vision sensor market. However, the adoption of a product differentiation strategy by established players is creating tight competition for the new entrants and restricting the growth of the market.

Vision sensors use images captured by a camera to determine the presence, orientation, and accuracy of surrounding objects. They consist of several components such as a camera, computer processor, and display. These sensors are widely used across various industries to monitor production processes, maintain product quality, and check if the operational efficiency is being achieved.

Vision sensors are particularly helpful when multiple features must be inspected within the product. There is usually some degree of tolerance for each article. Vision sensors are considerably quicker and more accurate than humans employed for the same task. Barcodes, blot/stain detection, sizing and alignment, and many other parameters can be determined without any direct contact.

Machine vision systems have certain disadvantages: these systems are unable to cope with unforeseen circumstances and input; although they are cost-saving in the long run, it has high costs of installation and personnel training. Constant levels of appropriate illumination are difficult to maintain, and cameras can have difficulties isolating products in congested environments reducing the accuracy and benefits of these sensors.

Cognex (US), Teledyne (US), Keyence (Japan), Baumer Holding (Switzerland), and Sick AG (Germany) are among a few major manufacturers of vision sensors.
