 PROFILE
Because the eyes don't always have it, Cognex makes hardware and software that replaces human vision in a variety of detailed manufacturing processes. Cognex's sophisticated image-analysis software uses video cameras to extract data from an object to locate and measure it, and to detect imperfections. Semiconductor and electronics manufacturers are Cognex's largest customers, with Fuji America accounting for about 10% of its sales. Other targeted markets are automotive, health care, and consumer goods, and manufacturers and end users in North America, Europe, and Japan. Cognex also offers consulting and educational services, as well as technical support for its products.
