Industrial image processing and machine vision have become ubiquitous features of the modern industrial world, helping manufacturers achieve the speed and precision to cut costs, improve productivity, and gain a competitive advantage. Powered by sophisticated image processing software, machine vision solutions are utilized in almost every manufacturing function, from assembly to identification, inspection, and packaging.

Like most proprietary software-driven automation solutions, the IP investment in software must be protected from illegal copying or tampering. And, with creative licensing and entitlement strategies, software can be monetized with new business models to boost revenues and improve customer satisfaction.

Case in point: Wibu-Systems has assisted MVTec, a vanguard developer of software for machine vision solutions, by extending the reach of its flexible CodeMeter software protection and licensing platform into MVTec’s product portfolio to protect their software and to distribute and manage licenses across all their markets, including a new venture into the educational market.
