How do LED lighting controllers
benefit machine vision systems?

The Practical Use of Lighting Controllers

Lighting is essential to the successful performance of every machine vision system. Using LED light controllers can help deliver the best results. Systems need careful and reliable control of illumination intensity which a good lighting controller will provide.

If you pulse (or strobe) a light, using an LED light controller can help synchronise the “on” time of your light with the camera and target product. LED light controllers can enable safe overdrive which gives a much increased intensity for short, defined periods. A controller can also enable precision trigger sequencing between vision cameras, lights and other system elements.

LED light controllers have two main modes of operation – continuous and pulsed (strobed). Gardasoft light controllers allow fine adjustment of the pulse timing, which is often more flexible than adjusting the camera timing. Pulsing enables users to freeze the image of fast-moving objects and enables LEDs to be overdriven past the manufacturer's rating. Gardasoft SafePower™ and SafeSense™ technology allows you to overdrive with ease and confidence. Many Gardasoft LED controllers offer multiple triggering modes for specialist applications including computational imaging.
