Visionscape 4.1 Comprehensive Machine Vision Software
POSTED 05/21/2010
Track, trace and control solution specialist, Microscan, has announced availability of Visionscape 4.1 - a completely scalable, single-software package that can be used on machine vision boards, GigE solutions, and smart cameras. Its comprehensive machine vision toolset includes blob analysis, OCR, OCV, barcode, vector and edge algorithms, plus the industry leading pattern-matching tool, Intellifind.
Visionscape 4.1 brings additional tools such as colour matching and colour segmentation. Color matching can be used in high speed applications such as sorting parts, and colour segmentation enables other tools to be applied in a specific colour plane. The upgrade also includes flexibility in creating custom user interfaces via VB.net and C#. Additionally, the expanded platform support of Visionscape 4.1 allows users to choose from a wide range of third party GigE cameras.
"It is very unique what we have in Visionscape because no other providers combine the breadth of tools and flexibility of scripting and interfaces in a single software package with the scalability of functioning both on PCs or smart cameras," said Bruce Scharf, Microscan VP of engineering. "We are committed to continuing our investment in this industry-leading machine vision platform with our customers needs in mind."
Certified System Integrator Program
Set Yourself at the Forefront of the Global Vision Market

Vision system integrators certified by A3 are acknowledged globally throughout the industry as an elite group of accomplished, highly skilled and trusted professionals. You’ll be able to leverage your certification to enhance your competitiveness and expand your opportunities.
Visionscape's graphical programming environment for rapid development of sophisticated machine vision applications does not require software coding skills. Machine vision jobs developed for a smart camera platform can directly be transferred to a PC-based solution without reprogramming, says the company.
Matt Van Bogart, Microscan channel manager, said: "One challenge facing integration partners today is the lack of scalability or availability from various vendors. Many vendors have different software platforms for different hardware options. Microscan is the only vendor to provide a single comprehensive machine vision solution including NERLITE lighting, cameras, and software. Basically, with Microscan you get all of the hardware needed, and with Visionscape you don't need to learn multiple software programs to support your customers."
