The spreadsheet interface provides access to proven In-Sight vision tools,
including PatMax Redline™, the most powerful part finding algorithm.
In-Sight VC200 in brief
High-performance processing:
system as a whole gets faster with
each additional smart camera.
Multiple acquisition schemata:
simple configuration for complex
synchronous and asynchronous
multi-camera applications.
Flexible workflow interface:
easily link smart cameras and
communicate results.
Powerful In-Sight tools: location of
parts or features with PatMax Redline
in less than 20 milliseconds.
Browser-based HMI: mobile,
platform-independent visualization
and anywhere access via a web
browser without extra software.
Reuse project components: new
projects implemented faster.
to modify application logic. They
can connect these blocks to easily
exchange data between them.
Cameras are configured for their
inspection tasks using the In-
Sight spreadsheet interface. This
spreadsheet interface provides
access to proven In-Sight vision
tools, including PatMax Redline™,
the most powerful part finding
algorithm that can locate parts or
features in less than 20 milliseconds
in a 5-megapixel image, and
OCRMax™, a font-trainable OCR and
OCV tool that provides high character
read rates while keeping misreads
to a minimum. Users therefore
gain straightforward access to all
functions that they are familiar with
from their experience with proven
Cognex vision technology.
Modern, powerful, web-based
HMIs allow mobile and platform-
independent viewing of the images
and results from each connected
camera. The customizable HMIs
provide monitoring and control
through password-protected access
levels. With the In-Sight VC200,
operators can view inspections, QA
officers (for example) can modify
parameters, and plant managers
can review performance statistics
simultaneously from any iOS
®
,
Android
®
or Windows
®
-based device
with a web browser.
In addition, project components
(block diagrams, tables, web pages,
and even whole inspection sequences)
can be stored for subsequent reuse
in other projects. This considerably
simplifies setup for new or modified
multi-view inspections, and helps
maintain high productivity.
