• Founded in 1999
• Machine Vision Systems
• Consultancy providing image processing software
• Change of focus to Lighting Controllers

Gardasoft Vision Ltd was founded in 1999 by Peter Bhagat, to provide turnkey machine vision systems for industry and image processing software consultancy. The market need for lighting controllers was quickly identified and Gardasoft’s first controller, the PP101, was released in 2000.

The company’s core business is the design, development and supply of high performance LED lighting controllers. The company no longer undertakes machine vision or consultancy projects. However the knowledge gained from producing systems means that detailed and knowledgeable applications advice on the use of controllers in machine vision systems can always be provided.

The company benefits from the “Cambridge Effect” – this region has a highly skilled workforce and has invented and developed many leading technologies in use worldwide today. There is a high concentration of advanced technology companies in Cambridge
