BOCA RATON, Fla., 28 Sept. 2008. Imperx Inc., which makes digital cameras for machine vision in Boca Raton, Fla., is joining the Cognex Acquisition Alliance to provide integrated machine vision technology.

The alliance calls for Cognex Corp. in Natick, Mass., and Imperx to pool their marketing and engineering efforts to speed qualification of Imperx cameras for 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.

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 cameras for use with Cognex machine vision software. This ability will ensure that customers have access to the widest possible range of Imperx camera options for their VisionPro applications.
