PPT Vision develops, produces and markets products and solutions based on smart camera, as well as industrial multi-camera vision systems used in quality control and inspection in the manufacturing industry (machine vision). The value of the transaction amounts to 5.2 million USD, entirely financed through existing internal resources. The technological assets acquired by Datalogic include over 25,000 systems installed worldwide and 4 exclusive patents.
