AUTO CALIBRATION PROCEDURE FOR EXTERNAL LIGHTS ATTACHED TO MACHINE VISION SYSTEM OPERATING ON POWER OVER ETHERNET

Abstract:

Methods and systems for automatically calibrating external illumination sources are disclosed herein. An example method includes supplying power over Ethernet (PoE) to an imaging assembly. The example method may further include identifying a characteristic corresponding to an external illumination source connected to the imaging assembly. The example method may further include adjusting an output intensity of the external illumination source based upon the characteristic, wherein the imaging assembly supplies the PoE to the external illumination source.
