With Illumination Systems for Computational Imaging from our solutions partner, CCS, they offer you a new way of thinking.
Computational Imaging (CI) refers to digital image capture and processing techniques that combine computation and optical encoding. Relying on data extracted and computed from a series of input images captured under different lighting or optical conditions, CI can improve the capability of a camera or introduce new features not previously possible. By creating an output image focused on the image properties most important to a particular machine vision task, CI offers powerful advantages over traditional one-shot imaging.
To learn more about Computational Imaging, check out the video, brochure, and white paper CCS has produced – all available at GlobalAutoID.com/CCS.
Also, check out the 2020 General Catalog for lighting solutions from CCS, also available at GlobalAutoID.com/CCS.

Closing this week’s New & Notable, a quick message from us: we’re here for you, and will be.
There is fear and uncertainty on both sides of the buying and selling equation. Global Automation & Identification Group wishes everybody to take to heart that we will get through this, together. The world may be a different place after this pandemic, but it’s still a world that needs supply chains, needs manufacturers, needs entire functional industries -- and needs everybody to step up and adapt for the benefit of their customers, employees, shareholders and stakeholders.
GlobalAutoID is working hard to anticipate where everything is heading, and navigating the changing landscape. We’re here for any business within our niches, on either side of the buying/selling equation, to share what we’re learning during this time. And we’re available for those businesses later, if they have to pause now. We’re here to work together now and the future, to help us all thrive in this new world, and whatever new worlds we reach.
This has been New & Notable for April 20th. Be sure to return next week for news and highlights from our solutions partners and other companies.
