Vision-guided robot (VGR) insights. Vision-guided robot (VGR) technology has grown thanks to advanced in RGBD cameras, which allow the robot to accurately acquire 3D models. VGRs also are more flexible than traditional robots and the vision systems can make them safer, as well. Flexibility is another benefit of VGRs.
