inspection and measurement applications
SIMPLIFIED CALIBRATION AND COMMUNICATION
Vision-to-Robot Calibration
Whether a VGR application involves conveyor tracking for pick-and-place or guiding a robot to assemble components, vision-to-
robot calibration is required to maintain accuracy and repeatability. In-Sight Explorer includes a step-by-step wizard that
facilitates calibration, guiding users through the process of correlating image pixels to robot coordinates.
Distorted Corrected
The step-by-step In-Sight non-linear calibration minimizes location error by correcting the image for lens and perspective distortion.
Robot Communication
The easier it is to configure seamless communications between
vision sensor and robot controller, the faster the application can be
deployed.
Vision guidance provides precise part location to robots in many Components are located, identified, and inspected during the automated
