A number of new members were welcomed to UKIVA at the Industrial Vision Association’s Annual General Meeting, held recently in Cardiff. In addition to four members in the new World Membership category, a further three UK-based companies have signed up to join the Association.

The new UK members are DVT Sensors Corporation who specialise in optical character recognition, component identification and inspection and measurement; Data Teknologies Ltd who offer one stop access to product tracking, identification and inspection, from single hand held scanners to multi camera systems and Framos Electronics who offer a comprehensive range of cameras and framegrabbers.

Association Director, Don Braggins, commented on the success of the new World Membership category, which has attracted members from across Europe. These are FalconVision from Hungary, Neuricam of Italy, Integrated Vision Products of Sweden and Ircon whose European base is in the Netherlands. He said, “The World Wide Web has radically changed the speed and ease with which information can be exchanged. Our web site attracts around 3,000 visitors per month, of whom more than 50 per cent are from outside the UK. Indeed we have received compliments on the usefulness of the site from as far afield as India. The Association’s objectives of promoting the use of machine vision in industry now has a much broader remit as the 21st century begins to unfold.”
