1 Embedded Vision Solutions Albert Revere, Manager, Marketing Programs, Avnet Visual inputs are the richest source of sensor information. For more than 50 years, scientists have tried to understand imaging and developed algorithms allowing computers to see with Computer Vision applications. The rst real commercial applications were referred to as Machine Vision. Machine Vision is the use of digital processing and intelligent algorithms to interpret meaning from images or video. Advancements in image sensing technologies, processing, analytic software and interconnects for the networking of devices has enabled incredible growth and innovation in a wide range of embedded 1 AXIOM

2 applications that incorporate machine vision functionality. Embedded systems are ubiquitous: they re found in automobiles, kitchen appliances, consumer electronics devices, medical equipment and countless other places. Embedded vision is the merging of these two technologies: embedded systems and machine vision. Over the next few years, there will be a rapid proliferation of embedded vision technology. The overall market for machine vision products will grow to more than $6 billion in At Avnet we have partnered with FLIR, Molex, ON Semiconductor and Xilinx along with some of the top suppliers providing complementary software solutions to support the research phase of Embedded Vision based design. We have assembled a library of product information, development kits and reference designs to jump start your next project. Whether your embedded vision application operates in low light conditions, requires high de nition imagery or uses thermal images for environmental control, Avnet has everything you need to get to market faster with a competitive advantage.
