As an accurate measuring instrument, a well-designed vision system is capable of spatially measuring one of a thousand or more parts. Because no contact is required for this measurement, there is no wear and no danger to fragile parts.

The visual system can save people from fatigue. Because there is no human operator, there is no human-induced operational change. Multiple systems can be set to run independently.

As computer processor prices have plummeted, machine vision systems have also become more cost-effective. In Europe and the United States, a $10,000 vision system can easily replace three human detectors, each requiring a salary of $20,000 a year. In China, the more exaggerated application is a machine vision device, which can replace hundreds of thousands of people for testing and measurement. In addition, the operation and maintenance costs of the vision system are very low.

Vision systems are capable of taking a variety of different measurements. When the application changes, only the software needs to be changed or upgraded to meet the new requirements.

Machine vision systems are more adaptable than optical or machine sensors. They give automatic machines versatility, flexibility and reconfigurability. When it comes to changing the production process, a "tool change" for machine vision is simply a software change rather than an expensive hardware replacement. Vision systems can often be reused when production lines are restructured.
