    Special Features Section 2-1 Special Features The F250 Vision Sensor uses a camera instead of the human eye to process images and inspect products. Visual inspections can be automated to perform complicated inspections quickly and accurately. There were problematic cases in which Vision Sensors could not detect differ- ences that could be detected by the human eye.
