Machine vision support

Sept. 1, 2005
The Cognex VisionPro PC vision software now supports the Microsoft Visual Studio .NET programming environment. VisionPro users can easily integrate third-party .NET objects into their vision applications and readily integrate vision applications with their automation systems.

Benefits include: easy merging of vision applications with motion control, I/O, and factory communications; custom tools can be developed and then seamlessly integrated with VisionPro tools; and third-party utilities such as databases and charting functions can be rapidly incorporated into vision applications.
