This textbook is one of the teaching resources planned and guided by Automation Technology Specialty Teaching Research Association of China Vocational Education Technology Association. It is also used as the ninth 3D teaching resources focusing on students’ practical and innovative ability, suitable for electro-mechanical specialty of higher vocational education, facing National Vocational Students Skills Competition, with the competition item achievement as a carrier. 

The teaching resource starts from the core technology application of industrial robot and intelligent vision system (IRIVS) and gradually develops into project practices and then to project implementation, i.e. installation of industrial robot, industrial robot setting and programming,  installation and testing of the intelligent vision system, PLC master program design, network building and program implementation of industrial Ethernet and testing and maintenance of overall system operation, and finally, this project is extended to the programming and testing of other brands of industrial robot and vision systems. The teaching resource presents a new solution to the “teaching” and “learning” of the technologies for the industrial robots and intelligent vision systems.

The teaching resource not only applies to the teachings in comprehensive trainings and engineering practice innovations in the electro-mechanical specialty of higher vocational colleges, but also to the activities by the students’ organizations, engineering innovation practices and skills competitions in different colleges, and may be used as the training instruction manual for enterprise engineering technicians.
