OEE = Availability × Performance × Quality. Manual data collection usually captures long stops but misses short ones, which makes performance losses invisible. Cameras can measure what actually happens at each station.
What cameras can measure
- Running and stopped intervals, including micro-stops
- Cycle time per unit or batch
- Output counts per station and shift
- Station staffed or unattended
Older machines without PLC data
Where machines have no accessible data interface, camera-based measurement provides running state and output without wiring or retrofitting controllers.
Feeding OEE
Camera data covers availability and performance directly. Quality usually comes from inspection results or existing systems and can be combined via API.

Do stop reasons come from the cameras?
Cameras show when and where a stop happened; reason codes may still come from operators or existing systems.
