JUNE 2, 2008--Camera manufacturer VRmagic (Mannheim, Germany) is now a partner in the MVTec Image Acquisition Partner Program. With release 8.0.2 of its HALCON image-processing software, MVTec provides an interface to cameras from VRmagic.
"A complete HALCON interface has never before been programmed in just 10 days," said Christoph Zierl, development manager at MVTec. "Both the HALCON Imaging Acquisition Interface and the VRmagic SDK are well documented and highly structured, and this meant that it was possible to achieve fast integration," commented Thomas Ruf, development manager at VRmagic.
