业界首款用于智能相机和 PC机的机器视觉软件介绍

Matrox Design Assistant 4February 2014

Overview

» Matrox Design Assistant is anintuitive, versatile and extendable integrated developmentenvironment (IDE)

» Quickly configure and deploymachine vision applicationswithout the need forconventional programming


Design-time environment

» Matrox Design Assistant IDE is hosted on a PC running Windows®

» IDE is used to design inspection projects

» Construct and configure application flowchart

» Layout and configure operator interface (HMI)

» Project is then deployed to a targetrun-time platform


Integrated Development Environment

Contextual guide for every step

Run and test flowchart steps


Run-time environment

» Deployed project runs independently of Matrox Design Assistant IDE

» Interact with deployed project through » Operator View web page» discrete digital I/Os, serial link, Ethernet

(TCP/IP, EtherNet/IP™, MODBUS® and PROFINET)

» Operator View can be accessed remotely or viewed locally from Internet Explorer®

Deploying with version 3 and prior

» Could deploy projects only toMatrox Iris GT smart cameras


Preliminary

Deploying with version 4

» Can deploy projects to any PC and/or Matrox Iris GT smart cameras


Preliminary

Fundamental concepts

» Develop an inspection and deploy it to a PC and/or Matrox Iris GT smart camera

» PC and smart camera are running thesame underlining vision library (MIL)thus producing the same results

» Simplifies and reducestraining, development and maintenance


Preliminary

Key features

» Deploy the same project on the development PC, a remote PC ora Matrox Iris GT smart camera

» Capture from GigE Vision® (GEV) andUSB3 Vision™ (U3V) standard cameras

» A single project can handle multiple cameras

» Provides native support for both 32-bit and 64-bit Windows®


Preliminary

Key features

» Supports TCP / UDP, EtherNet/IP™, MODBUS® and PROFINET communication

» Serial communication depending on PC

» Gives basic access to discrete I/Os on supported Matrox Imaging hardware

» Real-time I/O supporton Matrox 4Sight GPm


Preliminary

Key features

» Direct communication with select robot controllers (ABB, Epson and Fanuc) for2D vision-guided robotics (VGR)


Preliminary

Key features

» Includes separate Matrox MultiCamHMI application

» Multi project viewer for projects running on separate PCs and/or smart cameras

» Provides access to a project’s operator interface on an individual basis

» Source code is provided for customization

PreliminaryMatrox Design Assistant 4February 2014

Matrox MultiCamHMI


Preliminary

Key features

» Includes a Profiler tool to verify which flowchart steps take the longest to run and should thus be optimized first


Key features

» Includes MIL Control Center for centralized access to associated tools and utilities


Key features

» Includes Matrox Capture Assistant for verifying and troubleshooting connections toGigE Vision® cameras


Preliminary

Packaging

» Matrox Design Assistant 4 OR will be

» included with specific SKUsof Matrox Iris GT smart camera

» pre-installed on specific SKUsof Matrox 4Sight GPm

» sold separately for generic PCs


Preliminary

With Matrox Iris GT

» Run-time pre-installed and pre-licensed on specific smart camera SKUs as today

» Model Finder and String Reader require a supplemental license sold separately

» Media provided to install IDE on host PC

» IDE is licensed when connected tosmart camera


Preliminary

With Matrox Iris GT

» Project runs within IDE if connected to smart camera or deployed to smart camera

» Separate emulation license allows project to run within IDE without smart camera

» Provided as part of software maintenance

» Requires yearly renewal

» Pricing of specific smart camera SKUs remains the same


Preliminary

With Matrox 4Sight GPm

» IDE (design-time) and run-time to be pre-installed and pre-licensed on specific Matrox 4Sight GPm SKUs

» Run-time license (MIL) same asMatrox Iris GT plus camera Interface (GEV and U3V)

» Model Finder and String Reader require a supplemental license sold separately


For generic PCs

» Separate software toolkit (like MIL development toolkit)

» To include media to install design-time (IDE) and/or run-time environments


Preliminary

For generic PCs

» Also to include a design/run-timelicense USB dongle

» Same run-time license (MIL) as Matrox Iris GT plus camera Interface (GEV and U3V), Model Finder and String Reader

» Additional run-time (MIL) licensesto be purchased separately


Confidential

Target customers

» Any user needing scalability

» Start with a single smart camera

» Move to PC with GEV/U3V camera when you need more processing power, faster frame rate or higher resolution

» Same project; just different deployment platform


Confidential

Target customers

» Any user needing two or more cameras for a given project

» Matrox 4Sight GPm or any PC with several GEV/U3V cameras provides a more cost-effective solution than deploying multiple smart cameras


Confidential

Target customers

» Any user using both smart cameras and PC solutions

» Learn a single development environmentfor both platforms

» Lower maintenance / service costs
