Product Description:
B & R Automation’s VSS112D21.051P-000 belongs to the VS Smart Sensors series and to the integrated machine vision product range. As a smart sensor, it combines optics, illumination, and embedded processing to perform one active vision function directly on the machine without an external PC. Mounted through an S-mount thread, it serves as an inline inspection node that forwards evaluated results to higher-level control systems, reducing network traffic and cabinet space in industrial automation cells. The compact arrangement keeps imaging, lighting, and processing in one housing, which helps when installation space is limited around conveyors or fixtures.
The vision task is handled by a Cortex A9 i.MX6 dual-core processor clocked at 800 MHz; its two cores share 512 kB of L2 cache and are supported by 1 GB of DDR3 RAM for buffering image data. A global shutter imager captures frames at 90 fps with a native resolution of 1.3 MP, enabling tracking of moderately fast parts without motion blur. The focal plane is served by a 12 mm, F4 2/3″ lens, and the lens coating helps reduce stray light before it reaches the imager. A front window with an anti-reflective glass layer helps limit reflection artifacts. The LED lighting assembly follows lens type 2 geometry and uses 16 devices arranged as four segments of four single-color diodes, creating even illumination when the IR emitters pulse with the exposure cycle. Preprocessing performance uses the standard variant, which suits inspection routines based on edge, blob, and pattern tools rather than deep neural processing.
An inspection cone with a 37° angle sets the sensor’s working distance, and the fixed-focus optic keeps magnification consistent across deployments. Illumination is infrared with a peak at 856 nm; this wavelength avoids visible glare on metal surfaces and supports operation in ambient light. The board hosts 16 LEDs that are driven in high-current strobes to freeze motion while keeping average thermal load low. Line-scan acquisition is not supported, so the device is unsuitable for line sensor duties.
