Cognex Introduces OneVision: A Breakthrough Cloud Platform for AI-Powered Machine Vision

New Training Platform Enables Scalable Automation and Addresses Major Challenges in Industrial AI Adoption

Cognex Corporation, a global leader in industrial machine vision, has announced the upcoming full release of OneVision™, a cloud-based platform set to revolutionize how manufacturers develop, train, and scale AI-driven vision applications.

"OneVision is the culmination of nearly ten years of industrial AI innovation at Cognex," said Carl Gerst, Executive Vice President of Vision and ID Products. "By merging our cutting-edge AI capabilities with an exceptional user experience, we’re helping customers streamline application development, scale operations more efficiently, and get the most out of their automation investments."

Engineered to meet the complex demands of global manufacturing, OneVision addresses key challenges that have traditionally hindered widespread adoption of AI-powered machine vision:

1. Prolonged development timelines and complex learning curves: A user-friendly interface with guided workflows enables teams—regardless of experience level—to cut setup times from months to minutes.
2. High upfront infrastructure costs: Cloud-based deployment eliminates the need for extra hardware, reducing investment costs and improving return on investment.
3. Fragmented systems and poor integration: OneVision’s unified platform brings tools, data, and workflows into one environment, fostering seamless collaboration, knowledge sharing, and faster rollouts across multiple devices, lines, and facilities.
4. Inconsistent performance across sites: Centralized development with options for local customization ensures global consistency while allowing flexibility to adapt to specific site needs.

With the introduction of OneVision, Cognex expands its best-in-class machine vision portfolio, empowering users to tackle complex vision challenges more reliably, at scale, and with greater speed—further accelerating industrial AI adoption.

OneVision is currently available to select customers using the In-Sight® 3800 and 8900 vision systems and will be rolled out to additional Cognex products in early 2026.
