Study on the effect of machine vision in real time application — Robot welding

In the present scenario, Industries are finding ways to increase productivity and reduce cost by implementing new technologies like machine vision to all automated fields. This is a study about the enhancement and/or the application of vision power in the field of robot welding and how it controls variable parameters to optimize its production.
