Customers report faster deployment, improved throughput, and new levels of collaboration

NATICK, Mass., May 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Cognex Corporation (NASDAQ: CGNX), the global leader in industrial machine vision, today announced the general availability of OneVision™, its collaborative AI vision development environment designed to simplify and scale AI-powered inspection across manufacturing operations.

Since its beta launch in June 2025, more than 100 customers worldwide have used OneVision to accelerate AI-powered vision development and deployment, with many progressing from single-line applications to multi-site rollouts in days instead of months. This momentum reflects a broader shift as manufacturers move beyond isolated AI pilots toward connected, enterprise-wide inspection strategies.

"AI vision has long delivered value, but scaling it across operations has remained a barrier," said Matt Moschner, President and CEO of Cognex. "Manufacturers encounter recurring challenges—from fragmented workflows to models that don't adapt across environments. OneVision addresses this by unifying the simplicity of the edge with the scalability of the cloud, helping organizations move from isolated pilots to consistent, enterprise-wide deployment."

Cloud-to-Edge Architecture for Scalable AI Vision
OneVision addresses a persistent challenge in industrial AI: deploying advanced vision applications at enterprise scale without adding complexity or slowing production. This introduces a cloud-to-edge architecture, where AI models are trained, managed, and governed in the cloud, while inspection runs at the edge on Cognex vision systems for real-time, reliable execution. Customers can now centrally manage the entire AI lifecycle—from collecting and labeling production images to refining models—and deploy updates consistently across global fleets of devices. OneVision is optimized to work with Cognex's latest systems, including the In-Sight® 3900 and In-Sight® 6900.

"While OneVision leverages the cloud for development and management, runtime inspection remains fully edge-based," said Reto Wyss, Vice President of Vision Engineering at Cognex. "Once a model is deployed, no connectivity to the cloud is required. Production images stay local and latency is a non-issue."

By centralizing model development and management, OneVision helps manufacturers:

  • Standardize inspection processes across sites.
  • Reduce duplication of work across teams.
  • Reduce scaling costs by up to 50%.
  • Maintain version control and consistency across deployments.

Customer Success: From Pilots to Global Scale
Across industries including automotive, electronics, food and beverage, and healthcare, customers are seeing faster AI application development, improved throughput, and more consistent inspection results—while reducing reliance on specialized expertise and scaling deployments globally.

EssityAI inspection development: from one year to one day

  • "With our previous approach, developing a reliable sealing inspection application took more than a year of iteration and tuning, and quality issues could lead to full batch returns and significant material waste," said Amin Tajeddine, Operational Technology and Digitization Manager. "Using OneVision, we were able to build and demonstrate a viable solution in less than a day. OneVision's simplicity and ease of use significantly reduced development effort and gives us confidence in how quickly AI vision applications can be scaled across our operations."

Schneider ElectricStandardizing AI inspection for global scale

  • "OneVision allowed us to develop and validate AI inspection standards centrally and then deploy those same models across our worldwide operations," said Christophe Ernis, Smart Operation Manager, Product Power Division. "That approach helped us double yield, dramatically reduce false rejects, and reduce our dependence on specialized vision expertise. Most importantly, it gives us a repeatable way to scale best practices reliably across our factories."

3MImproving speed and collaboration in AI vision development

  • "With OneVision, our engineers can quickly label real production images, build models, and deploy them to cameras with far less effort," said Scott Daniels, Senior Manufacturing Technology Engineer.

With general availability now underway, Cognex expects momentum for OneVision to accelerate as manufacturers demand scalable AI vision to drive operational efficiency across global production networks.

Cognex OneVision™ Adoption Ramps as Manufacturers Scale AI Vision Globally

Cognex OneVision™ Adoption Ramps as Manufacturers Scale AI Vision Globally

TAIPEI, May 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The S&P Global Sustainability Yearbook Awards Ceremony was held in Taipei on May 13. TECO Electric & Machinery Co., Ltd. (TWSE: 1504) was named to the 2026 edition of The Sustainability Yearbook by global index and ratings agency S&P Global for the sixth time, in recognition of its long-standing commitment to sustainable management.

TECO has also been selected for the Dow Jones Best-in-Class Indices (DJBICI), underscoring its continued progress across environmental, social, and governance dimensions. TECO Chairman Morris Li stated that sustainable development is a core element of TECO's long-term competitiveness. Guided by its focus on electrification, intelligence, and green energy, TECO will further advance ESG governance, operational carbon reduction, and low-carbon innovation in line with international sustainability standards, strengthening its resilience amid the global transition toward net zero.

In recent years, TECO Group has actively embedded sustainability into its global operations. TECO has set a target to reduce operational emissions by 50% over a ten-year period by 2030 and, by 2025, had achieved a reduction of more than 40%. TECO has also continued to install solar power generation facilities at its own sites, with global installed capacity exceeding 17 MW in the same year, steadily advancing toward its 2030 goal of having renewable energy account for 30% of the Group's total electricity consumption.

To translate carbon reduction commitments into concrete management mechanisms, TECO has introduced an internal carbon pricing mechanism of NT$1,600 per metric ton of CO2e and established an internal carbon fund mechanism to support investments in energy management, renewable energy, low-carbon innovation, and capability building. Through this mechanism, three low-carbon proposals were launched last year, with expected annual carbon reductions approaching 1,000 metric tons of CO2e. TECO has also implemented an energy management program and publicly disclosed energy consumption information to strengthen energy performance management, enhance operational transparency, and continuously improve energy efficiency.

Beyond reducing emissions from its own operations, TECO has extended its sustainability influence to supply chain and industry partners. For two consecutive years, TECO has participated in the "Net-Zero Transformation Promotion Program for the Manufacturing Sector" initiated by the Industrial Development Administration, Ministry of Economic Affairs. Working with more than 20 corporate partners, TECO has formed a "1+N Carbon Management Demonstration Team" to help supply chain partners strengthen carbon management and low-carbon transformation capabilities through carbon inventory assessments and in-depth energy-saving guidance.

In corporate governance, TECO's Board of Directors oversees climate-related issues and sustainability strategies. TECO has also linked concrete KPIs, including carbon reduction results, carbon intensity, and green supply chain performance, to senior executives' performance evaluations, establishing a dual mechanism of "governance plus incentives" to ensure that sustainability goals are effectively integrated into organizational management and operational performance.

As TECO marks its 70th anniversary this year, TECO will take this milestone as an important step toward its next stage of growth and transformation, continuing to deepen its "B (Business) 2B (Business) 2S (Sustainability)" philosophy and working with global customers and suppliers to move together toward a net-zero future.
