Machine Vision Software and Cameras

All Guidance Systems support the PreciseVision machine vision system. This is a vision software package than can run either on a PC for higher performance applications, or in the motion controller processor for simple applications (available in the future).

When PreciseVision is executed on a PC, it communicates with the motion controller via Ethernet and with cameras via either Ethernet or USB connections. Vendors such as IDS Imaging offer a variety of Ethernet machine vision cameras and industrial USB cameras.
