Why CAE Simulations Fail: Five Design Trade-offs Engineers Overlook (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided engineering (CAE) software allow engineers to design, simulate and iterate before building physical systems. These tools reduce development time and make it possible to evaluate designs earlier in the process. Design decisions are increasingly made in the digital model, before a physical system exists. When those decisions are wrong, however, the failure is often not discovered until validation or production. The working assumption is that a digital
Six Design Considerations in Machine Vision Lighting (opens the original)
Read excerpt
An interesting and counterintuitive fact is that machine vision systems inspect images, not parts. If the information needed for an inspection does not reach the camera, higher-resolution equipment and more sophisticated software cannot recover what was not captured. Lighting determines what information reaches the image. The engineering challenge is not producing more light but selecting a lighting strategy that reveals the information the inspection requires while suppressing information that
