Experts of vision related standards from around the world will meet April 13 – 17 at the NH Prague City Hotel for their 2026 spring meeting supported by the global G3 group formed by A3 (US), CMVU (China), JIIA (Japan), EMVA (Europe) and VDMA (Germany).
The attending vision and image processing technical professionals will discuss the further development of various vision related standards in the different working groups. Allways being one of the highlights, the meeting will include the traditional plugfest where engineers apply the standards connecting a wide range of products to test compatibility, functionality and technical performance.
The spring meeting is hosted and organized by the EMVA, all formal members of the respective working groups are invited to register now. Read more ›

The DeepEdge broadband coating is the refined anti-reflection coating from Schneider-Kreuznach. It extends the usable spectral range of lenses down to 380 nm. The new coating is now applied as standard to OPAL series lenses.
At the core of the innovation is the extension of the usable spectral range. The DeepEdge broadband coating is optimized for a wide range from 380 nm to 1000 nm.
The development is a response to increasing requirements in industrial imaging.
Optimized for deep blue light and lasers.
The DeepEdge broadband coating is suitable for applications using specific short-wavelength light sources. With the edge shifted down to 380 nm, it supports 405 nm lasers and LEDs without difficulty. This covers the typical illumination bandwidth and coating tolerances. Read more ›

Industrial machine vision systems have grown increasingly complex—multiple cameras, edge devices, and processing pipelines operating across distributed environments. When issues arise, traditional logging approaches fall short, providing scattered, unstructured data that lacks context about relationships between events. OpenTelemetry addresses this challenge with standardised observability: end-to-end traces reveal exactly what happens across components, structured logs provide context, and metrics enable performance insights. STEMMER IMAGING now brings this proven technology to machine vision through CVB 15.0, enabling faster debugging, proactive system management, and seamless integration with existing enterprise monitoring tools.
