SEPTEMBER 26, 2008--Imperx (Boca Raton, FL, USA; www.imperx.com), a provider of state-of-the-art digital cameras for machine-vision systems, has been selected by machine-vision system provider Cognex (Natick, MA, USA; www.cognex.com) to become a member of the Cognex Acquisition Alliance. The Acquisition Alliance is a Cognex initiative to work with key camera vendors to provide integrated machine-vision system solutions to a mutual customer base. Cognex and Imperx will work on cooperative marketing efforts and enhance their technical relationship to speed qualification of Imperx cameras for use with Cognex VisionPro software.
"This will allow us to more readily offer our high-resolution camera solutions with the high quality vision software from Cognex," says Nathan Cohen, sales manager at Imperx. "By being part of the Acquisition Alliance we can assure customers that we are compatible with the Cognex software."
The Acquisition Alliance establishes a non-exclusive marketing and technical relationship between the two companies. Cognex will provide Imperx with software and test procedures that will allow Imperx to certify new cameras for use with Cognex machine vision software. This ability will ensure that customers have access to a wide range of Imperx camera options for their VisionPro applications.
