With the transfer of the global manufacturing center to China, China's machine vision market is becoming an important target market for international machine vision manufacturers after North America, Europe and Japan.
The machine vision system converts the captured target into an image signal through the machine vision product, transmits it to a special image processing system, obtains the morphological information of the captured object, converts it into a digital signal according to the distribution of pixels, brightness, color, etc., and then uses the artificial intelligence software system to analyze and process the data, and finally infer the information we need from it and make the next analysis and decision.
1. 2017 Global Machine Vision Production and Sales Analysis
With the wave of industrial 4.0, machine vision will get rid of the initial "auxiliary tool" status and become the "eyes" and "brain" of the production system. At present, machine vision has long been mature in developed countries, and the industry has entered a period of stable growth.
At present, the global machine vision market is between 45 and 7 billion US dollars: in 2016, the global machine vision market is about 6.2 billion US dollars, and the average annual compound growth rate of the market from 2002 to 2016 is about 12%. The global market size of machine vision systems and components was US $4.2 billion in 2015, about US $4.6 billion in 2016, and US $5 billion in 2017.

Comparison of Chinese and Foreign Machine Vision Markets in 2. in 2017
With the transfer of global manufacturing center to China, China's machine vision market is becoming an important target market for international machine vision manufacturers after North America, Europe and Japan. At present, the Asia-Pacific region, including China and Japan, accounts for more than 20% of the world, surpassing Europe, ranking the second largest regional market in the world.
From the perspective of the global market, the machine vision industry has matured, and the number of patents in the foreign machine vision market has declined year by year in recent years. Global machine vision patent distribution is mainly concentrated in the United States, Europe, Japan and other developed countries, Europe and the United States in the field of machine vision technology is dominant.
From the application distribution point of view, the current application of machine vision abroad is mainly reflected in the semiconductor and electronics industry, of which about 40%-50% are concentrated in the semiconductor industry. In addition, the machine vision system has been widely used in all aspects of quality inspection, and its products occupy a pivotal position in the application.
From the perspective of regional distribution, the early development of machine vision was mainly concentrated in Europe, America and Japan; with the transfer of global manufacturing centers to China, the Chinese machine vision market is becoming an important target market for international machine vision manufacturers after North America, Europe and Japan. The share of the European and American markets has steadily declined. However, overall, North America is still the largest market for machine vision, accounting for about 35-40%.
At present, the Asia-Pacific region dominates the global market for machine vision systems and their components, and is also the fastest growing region in the machine vision system market, with a compound annual growth rate of 11% during 2011-2017. This is followed by North America, which has a market share of more than 30%, making it the second largest growth area in the global machine vision market.
Current situation of domestic patent applications in 3.: the number of annual patents has steadily increased. Patentees are concentrated in the southeast coast.
The number of domestic machine vision patents is increasing year by year, universities and enterprises have invested energy in the field of machine vision research, the domestic machine vision industry is in a stage of rapid development. The domestic machine vision industry is mainly concentrated in developed coastal provinces and Beijing. The number of patents in Jiangsu, Guangdong, Zhejiang, Beijing and Shanghai accounts for 75% of the total number of applications in the country.
Number of industrial enterprises: At present, there are more than 100 international machine vision brands in China. Besides old brands such as dimensional vision images, there are also more than 102 machine vision enterprises in China, more than 200 machine vision product agents and more than 50 professional machine vision system integrators, covering all machine vision industry chain products such as light sources, industrial cameras, industrial lenses, image acquisition cards and intelligent cameras.
