[1] Lighting equipment
Lighting for the workpieces is an important factor in image processing. The lighting conditions affect
the measurement results. Select the proper lighting equipment.
- Make sure there is uniform illumination of the whole measurement field where object images will be
taken.
- Use flicker-free lighting equipment, such as a high frequency fluorescent lamps or halogen lamps.
- Consult us about the right lighting equipment for your application.
[Backlighting]
Light should uniformly illuminate the field behind an object, so that the IV-S20 measure the object with
it's shadow. Since the shadow picture will be converted to binary values, reliable measurements can
be executed.

[Reflective lighting]
A light shone on the front of an object with angle will be reflected, and the IV-S20 will pick up the
reflected light. If too much light is reflected, such as from a metallic surface or similar materials, a
proper image may not be obtained.
