The UK Industrial Vision Association carries a wealth of useful information on its Web site: www.ukiva.org. In addition to transcripts of the many seminars run by the association and the association's own technical documents, the Web site contains a number of extremely useful links to national and international sites with a strong interest in vision.

Related sites include: the British Machine Vision Association, the Automated Imaging Association (in the USA), the Society of Manufacturing Engineers, The International Society for Optical Engineering, EUTIST-IMV and The Carnegie Mellon University Computer Vision home page.

EUTIST-IMV is an interesting European project to promote the take-up of machine vision technology and the Web site features some interesting case studies. EUTIST-IMV is open to all participants from industry and runs an information service to allow industrial partners to find out how they can benefit from machine vision, together with a programme of workshops, seminars and other events.

Another new addition to UKIVA's Web site are the presentations made at the association's recently held seminar entitled: "Using machine vision to maintain quality in the food and drink industry". Of particular interest is the keynote speech – "The role of machine vision systems in assuring fresh food quality", by John Roe from Sainsbury plc.
