• More About 3M

3M offers a broad portfolio of camera interconnect solutions with machine vision technology to empower machines and computers to interpret visual information with human-like comprehension. With a sophisticated algorithm, machine vision enables analysis and response to real-world visual data. Cameras and sensor systems today require increasingly complex information capture with improved clarity and efficiency. Machine vision systems include cameras, frame grabbers, and vision libraries. Interface standards ensure interoperability between different manufacturers and specific goal achievement. The standards comprise data rate, signal speed, signal integrity, and bandwidth confluence, including resolution, frame rate, and bit depth. The interface standards also outline required connectivity equipment, which must balanced according to local network capabilities and budget restrictions. Cables, connectors, assemblies, connector shells, and strain relief accessories are used in machine vision systems.
