Sensors, reimagined

The In-Sight SnAPP vision sensor brings the power of machine vision to everyone. With guided setup and pre-trained AI, In-Sight SnAPP allows manufacturers to quickly and easily automate inspections, no experience needed. Leveraging innovative vision technologies, these user-friendly sensors solve a wide range of error-proofing tasks to improve quality control. 

  • Flexible functionality – Address a variety of applications across all industries
  • Superior detection capabilities – Achieve higher detection rates with embedded AI and image-based analysis
  • High ease of use – Go from unboxing to automating your line in minutes

Automate activities across your facilities

In-Sight SnAPP Apps address a range of error-proofing tasks, from simple presence/absence detection to multi-point inspections. These sensors perform one job at a time but can solve a variety of different applications. Within the intuitive user interface, you can easily switch between applications to respond to changes on the line or create new jobs to automate more steps in your production process. This keeps your business agile, while reducing costs and eliminating manual errors.

Go beyond standard detection

Powered by AI and image-based analysis, In-Sight SnAPP vision sensors exceed the capabilities of conventional, laser-based sensors to offer higher accuracy and higher performance for any detection task. In-Sight SnAPP allows you to do more than ever before with a sensor:

  • Identify subtle features and anomalies
  • Handle product variations and quickly respond to changes
  • Run multi-point inspections
  • Locate features and parts in any position on the line

All of this helps you to eliminate false detections, reduce waste, and optimize overall quality and productivity.

Solve problems with ease

In-Sight SnAPP allows anyone to automate quality control tasks. Leveraging pre-trained AI, applications can be built, quickly and easily, with no experience needed.

  • Guided setup – Reduce downtime with fast, intuitive setup
  • Browser-based UI – Plug in and run In-Sight SnAPP from anywhere
  • No code training – Train jobs using a few sample images
  • Simplified deployment – Easily modify applications or build new ones within the UI, no hardware exchange needed
  • Streamlined integration – Replace multiple laser-based sensors with one vision sensor
