Robot Vision
Vision sensors are devices that are
applied to robotic vision. They allow robotic devices to see the
world. How they are seen is a different story. We are classifying
vision as something that allows a robot to see whether it is
infra-red, color differences, grey scale sensors, light sensors and
video cameras. These are just a few of the examples.| Name | Manufacturer | Description | Interface |
