Are your eyes the only component in your visual perception? Vision systems are comprised of multiple cameras and a processing system that tells the computer what is in its field of view. Just like your eyes receive light and your brain processes this telling another part of your brain what is in your field of view. I hope this helps.
Sure, just feels like a fancy way of saying it has cameras. Of course there is more than cameras, they are useless without a computer interpreting them.
Pretty sure it’s more complex than just a camera. There are usually other sensors / lasers involved.
Not sure what the point of OP’s video is though… Most modern production equipment uses vision systems to scan and detect that correct components are being used. This is not new tech at all. It’s not like these robotics were ever just running blind.
If you work in the industry, yes. I’m a programmer for a large factory and robots with cameras on are about as common as it gets. The camera’s image is calibrated so each pixel relates to a known distance value or coordinate. The camera program also finds corners/edges/holes/patterns etc that have been taught to a master image. The robot program has variables that are sent from the camera to fill in the target positions so it knows where to go.
So although most would just call it a camera, the addition of the software that analyses the image, and the feedback to the robot is considered a ‘vision system’.
It's like the national dumb down has started because I've seen some stupid posts explaining what it is like a 5 year old. Like the whole of reddit is turning into eli5

Do we call cameras "vision system" now?
