Automate 2023 in Detroit was an incredible event, showcasing the latest in cutting-edge robotics, vision, motion control, AI and more. It was great to be a part of the show and meet with customers, while making new connections. Couldn’t make it to the show? Here are a few highlights.
Unveiling Hidden Strobe – the best thing you’ll never see
Strobing an LED light helps freeze images of fast-moving objects but the flashing lights can be disorienting and cause issues for employees. Our patent-pending Hidden StrobeTM technology offers the benefits of strobing without the annoying flicker. No more shielding the lights to hide the strobe. No more being limited to non-visible light. Hidden Strobe all the benefits of strobing without the headaches.
Demos at Automate
DoAll inspecting a Harley Davidson
Our DoAll light for robotic inspection was hard at work inspecting a Harley Davidson motorcycle. This demo turned a few heads when it rolled into the show!
LZEW washdown light: Built to do your dirty work
Our newest washdown light is available in stainless steel or FDA-compliant non-stick coating. It spent the show flaunting its IP68 rating and non-stick capabilities while illuminating a tank of motor oil.
Lightgistics lights scan barcode from high speed ping pong balls
You may have heard that Lightgistics lights with award-winning Dual OverDrive are brighter, faster, and better, and you could see for yourself in our Automate booth.
Hidden Strobe
Our new, patent-pending Hidden StrobeTM technology was on display at Automate and left many people saying “Wow!” You could see the light in regular strobe mode with the strobing flashes. Then switch it to Hidden Strobe mode, which functions as a strobe but appears to your eyes as continuous light. The difference is obvious – the strobe isn’t.
