Crafting Excellence | Global Leadership in Automation & Robotics
Since its founding in 2006, OPT has consistently kept pace with the times, deeply engaging in the rapid growth of industries such as SMT, 3C, Photovoltaics, and Lithium Batteries. As artificial intelligence redefines the technological frontier, we are strategically transitioning our industrial-grade technological innovations into intelligent robotics—creating synchronized momentum between precision automation and cognitive machines that will propel manufacturing into its next evolutionary phase.
Powering the Future of Smart Manufacturing with the Full-Stack Innovation
OPT Vice President Zhenzhen He traced the company's two-decade technological evolution, vividly illustrating its precision breakthroughs - from nanoscale optical imaging to developing the world's smallest CXP camera, and from validation in over 1 billion industrial scenarios to building a massive defect database with hundreds of billions of samples. He comprehensively outlined the synergistic advancement of OPT's six core technologies - optics, mechanics, electronics, algorithms, software, and AI - fully demonstrating the company's complete technology portfolio spanning industrial vision, smart sensing, motion control, and extending to AI-powered intelligent robotics.
OPT Senior R&D Director Ling Cao elaborated on the company's customer-centric innovation philosophy, comprehensively demonstrating how OPT continuously advances vision technology toward effortless intelligence - from industrial AI algorithms and smart vision software to precision hardware systems in its three-dimensional technology framework.
Confronting Industrial AI's Four Core Challenges—protracted cycles, inadequate generalization, high technical barriers, and escalating costs—OPT's industrial vision model delivers breakthrough solutions:Our revolutionary good-product learning algorithm enables zero-sample precision detection without requiring training data, while intelligent sample generation technology effectively overcomes data scarcity challenges in complex operating environments. Together, these breakthroughs deliver dramatically enhanced model training efficiency, reducing development timelines and costs while maintaining exceptional accuracy.
Powered by AI innovation, the newly launched SmartWorks vision software represents China's first guided workflow solution, delivering 3x the efficiency of traditional drag-and-drop programming. Deeply integrated with DeepSeek AI and Qwen, the software supports AI-powered dialogue, programming, and multilingual translation, creating an intelligent closed-loop system from code development to global service deployment. This breakthrough achieves exponential leaps in 'intelligent manufacturing capability' - redefining productivity standards in industrial automation.
Functioning as AI edge computing's ultimate sensory extension, OPT smart cameras feature a highly integrated design with out-of-the-box toolkits for versatile scenario adaptation. In the intelligent code reader domain, OPT's full product line incorporates built-in machine learning universal models, representing the industry's first readers capable of simultaneous OCR and barcode recognition. Notably, the IDCI compact code reader achieves a groundbreaking 0.026mm minimum recognition precision for 1D barcodes.
Technical Director Biao Lau comprehensively demonstrated OPT's full-scenario inspection solution spanning 2D, 2.5D and 3D technologies during his featured presentation.
With 17 years of specialization in industrial cameras, OPT has consistently advanced its four core R&D priorities: image quality, stability, intelligence, and high-speed performance, establishing multiple technological advantages in 2D camera systems. The newly launched CoaXPress camera series features an innovative fanless low-power design, engineered to withstand challenging environments including dust and humidity while eliminating image blur and precision degradation caused by fan vibration.
OPT has introduced three groundbreaking vision systems for 2.5D surface inspection: phase deflection, photometric stereo, and hybrid phase-photometric technology. The photometric stereo solution features multi-light-source compatibility with independently controllable 4-zone and 8-zone illumination, ideally suited for complex diffuse reflection and textured materials. OPT's patented phase-photometric system represents an industry first, innovatively combining the strengths of both photometric stereo and phase deflection technologies. This synergistic approach enables complementary detection modes that rapidly adapt to diverse industrial surfaces - from diffuse and specular reflections to light-transmissive materials - delivering unparalleled inspection versatility.
OPT has established one of the industry's most comprehensive 3D measurement and inspection product portfolios, covering all application scenarios - from the widely-adopted laser line series, to high-precision projected structured light systems capable of single-shot imaging, through to speckle structured light solutions featuring extra-large field-of-view with aligned color+depth data.
Notably, our laser line 3D cameras achieve exceptional Z-axis repeatability of 0.1μm while eliminating the need for external controllers - reducing deployment costs by over 40%. Meanwhile, our speckle structured light 3D cameras maintain complete point cloud generation even in extreme lighting conditions exceeding 30,000 lux.
Beyond machine vision technology, sensors represent another critical sensing component in smart manufacturing inspection systems. OPT Senior R&D Director Zhirong Li provided a detailed technical breakdown of OPT's high-precision sensor capabilities across three fundamental dimensions: optical design, hardware development, and software algorithm implementation.
OPT's sensor portfolio comprises four major series: measurement, photoelectric, safety, and proximity sensors. The laser displacement sensors stand out with high-precision imaging optical design, achieving 0.05μm minimum repeatability and 88kHz maximum response frequency through FPGA-enabled edge computing.
At this launch event, OPT officially unveiled its dual-track development strategy of 'Industrial Automation + Intelligent Robotics,' while simultaneously introducing a series of embodied intelligence products - including fisheye cameras, RGB cameras, structured light cameras, ToF depth cameras, and LiDAR systems.
OPT Deputy Project Manager Rui Dong comprehensively presented the company's motion control product line, demonstrating how OPT's integrated solutions combine vision software, industrial lenses, sensors, and motion components for widespread applications across 3C, lithium battery, and semiconductor industries. Using lithium battery production lines as a case study, Dong vividly illustrated how OPT's all-in-one integrated solutions deliver three key advantages - speed, precision, and cost-efficiency (achieving an average 35% cost optimization) - significantly enhancing project quality and productivity.
With the official launch of East China Vision Industrial Park, attendees toured the Machine Vision Application Center. Its three thematic exhibition zones—spanning 1,600㎡ of meticulously recreated industrial scenarios—visually demonstrated OPT's innovative solutions for intelligent robotics, 3C electronics, semiconductor, automotive, and other key industry applications.
OPT's successful 2025 product launch event and the official inauguration of the East China Vision Industrial Park together mark a pivotal milestone in the company's development. This dual achievement not only signifies OPT's entry into a new phase of synergistic 'Industrial Automation and Intelligent Robotics' dual-track development, but also demonstrates its technological integration capabilities across industrial vision, smart sensing, motion control, AI algorithms, and embodied intelligence. The completion of the East China Vision Industrial Park will significantly enhance regional service capabilities, accelerating the growth of smart manufacturing in the Yangtze River Delta region.
