Module adds new utilities inspections

April 5, 2006
The Vision 8 Development Module combines vision libraries with acquisition software for many cameras--including those based on the IEEE 1394 (FireWire) connection standard--all optimized for programming environments such as LabVIEW and C++, Visual Basic, and .NET. In addition, the module includes new algorithms for golden template comparison, optical character verification, and Data Matrix grading.

The Vision 8 Development Module combines vision libraries with acquisition software for many cameras--including those based on the IEEE 1394 (FireWire) connection standard--all optimized for programming environments such as LabVIEW and C++, Visual Basic, and .NET. In addition, the module includes new algorithms for golden template comparison, optical character verification (OCV), and Data Matrix grading that are designed to help engineers identify packaging and assembly errors earlier in production. The algorithms help identify flaws in labels and defects in products, while the Data Matrix grading tool verifies that 2-D barcodes are applied correctly in accordance to the ISO 16022 (AIM) standard.
