CyberOptics® Corporation (NASDAQ:CYBE) announces that it was awarded a 2015 Global Technology Award in the category of Inspection – AOI for its SQ3000™ 3D Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) system. The award was presented to the company during a Tuesday, Nov. 10, 2015, ceremony that took place at the Messe München exhibition center in Munich, Germany during productronica, the world’s leading trade fair for electronics development and production. This marks the third award for the SQ3000 3D AOI since its introduction this year.

The SQ3000 3D AOI system maximizes ROI and line utilization with multi-view 3D sensors that capture and transmit data simultaneously, and in parallel, accelerating 3D inspection speed versus alternate technology. The proprietary Multi-Reflection Suppression (MRS) technology combined with the highly-sophisticated 3D fusing algorithms offers microscopic image quality at production speeds. An easy-to-use, intuitive interface with touch control facilitates minimal training and operator interaction.

“We are honored to be chosen as the winner of this prestigious award,” said Dr. Subodh Kulkarni, president and chief executive officer, CyberOptics. “Congratulations to our CyberOptics team behind the development of the proprietary technology that enables our leadership in the key attributes that matter most to our customers – accuracy, speed and ease-of-use.”

Premiering in 2005, the Global Technology Awards program is an annual celebration of product excellence in electronics surface mount assembly. Premier products based on the finest examples of creative advancement in technology are chosen by a distinguished panel of industry experts.
