IDS Imaging Development Systems GmbH, founded in 1997 and headquartered in Obersulm, Germany, specializes in industrial image processing and machine vision technologies. The company focuses on sectors requiring high-performance imaging such as factory automation, robotics, medical technology, and logistics. IDS develops a broad portfolio of industrial cameras including 2D and 3D vision systems, AI-enabled cameras, and USB/GigE cameras, with tailored solutions for image analysis and object detection. What sets IDS apart is its commitment to digitalization, embedded vision capabilities, and onboard AI processing, enabling edge computing and reducing processing loads. Their offering includes carbon-neutral product lines, showcasing their sustainability efforts. With a strong global presence, IDS serves a diverse range of industries across Europe, North America, and Asia, with dedicated tools and customer support for seamless integration in various environments.
Despite the tense procurement situation, the machine vision company. IDS expects a positive turnover development and growth of 15 % for the 2023 financial year.
With image processing and artificial intelligence, even such challenges can be mastered. Instead of elaborately programming a solution, neural networks and deep learning algorithms teach an image processing system to see, recognize and verify objects - in this case smoke. Furthermore, AI enables a corresponding image processing system to draw conclusions from what it learns.
Anyone who needs readily available industrial cameras for image processing projects is facing a difficult task due to the worldwide chip shortage. IDS Imaging Development Systems GmbH has therefore been pushing the development of alternative USB3 hardware generations with available, advanced semiconductor technology in recent months and has consistently procured components for this purpose.
