LATAB Light ControllerEVT EyeVision 3.0 Machine Vision Software now also supports LATAB light controller and lights. The LATAB controllers are microprocessor-based and specifically designed to control all types of LATAB lighting heads.

The controller automatically identifies the lighting type by LATAB. The light intensity can be adjusted by a dimmer inside the controller. Because of the various types of adjustable light intensity, it is possible to preprogram different lighting types for even complex setups. Also, the ‘long flash’ feature can increase the light intensity up to 200%.

EyeVision 3.0 is programmable with the drag-and-drop function in the graphical user interface. The LATAB controller can also be integrated into the inspection program with a special icon.

with complete support of Linux, Windows and Mac OS X

EyeVision 3.0 now available in Spanish
The EyeVision 3.0 – the new release of the well-proven image processing software – now offers a graphical user interface (GUI) in Spanish. All commands as well as menu items and the new context help feature have been translated into Spanish. The software now allows easy creation of inspection programs in English, French, German, Japanese, Chinese, Korean, and Spanish.
The GUI of EyeVision 3.0 supports the usual operating systems: Linux, Windows and Mac OS X. Additionally, the user can easily program via the drag-and-drop function, allowing inspection programs to be created with only a few mouse clicks- no special programming skills needed.
EyeVision 3.0 supports many camera manufacturers: Matrix Vision, BASLER, XIMEA, IDS, The Imaging Source, etc. The EyeVision 3.0 user can also create a stand-alone-solution for machine vision applications such as register mark recognition, position and rotation detection, solder joint and sealing inspection, closure and status inspection, carton folding and volume control, fill level inspection, inspection of glass and plastic bottles and color recognition.
And all this now also in Spanish!

Reading Container Numbers with EVOS Container Track

EVOS systemEVT (EyeVision Technology) introduces the new EVOS system for the reading and evaluation of container numbers for the railroad and shipping industries. The system consists of a compact processor unit, which is based on an ARM Technology, and the EVOS reading and evaluation software with integrated SQL database. The system can save and archive not only data but also images of several million containers.
EVOS Container Track is easy to install and it can be easily adapted to applications
in the transportation industry due to prefabricated profiles. Even under bad lighting conditions the EVOS software can read every number on the containers in
no time at all.
The container numbers allows for the definite identification of railway or shipping freight and carry important key data for the railroad and shipping traffic. They build a collective language between the railway company, infrastructure operators and the respective public authorities.
The EVOS system is reading, saving and processing the container numbers in a fast sequence. Additionally EVOS can be integrated into any vehicle identification system which needs an automatic OCR recognition.
The EVOS Container Track system can either work autonomously or can be operated directly by the user by connecting monitor, keyboard and mouse to the small processor.
The EVOS Basic Container Track processing unit is built upon a QuadCore ARM processor. The advantage of a QuadCore system is that the reading takes place within a few milliseconds after the capture of the image, allowing almost instant processing.
The EVOS processing unit is only a small box with the measurements 100 x 100 x 50 mm and is available with either with a 32 or 64 GByte drive. The unit supports up to 128 cameras, which are connected via Ethernet.

EVT has developed a command set for thermal imaging with their EyeVision3 software.
Now even complex applications for the thermal imaging area can be solved quite easily via drag-and-drop programming. The supported cameras are the Optris Infrared camera and the Axx Series from FLIR.infrarot screenshot SMD baustein
Typical applications include the automotive industry for inspection of crude steel quality; the cement industry for the inspection of the efficiency of revolving cylindrical furnace; the food and beverage industry, in bottling plants or in production, transport, storage and selling of perishable products.
In addition to the new command set, the user has the complete command set of the EyeVision software at their disposal: starting with the process connection via PLC and network integration up to image management.
With the GUI Designer, the user can create his own user interface, either as a native system or via the integrated webserver for controlling over the network or internet.

EyeVision 3 With Electrically Tunable LensEVT presents the new EyeCheck smart camera with an electrically tunable lens by Optotune.
Flexible and fast focusing solutions with electrically tunable lenses are highly beneficial for machine vision applications such as quality control, packet sorting, bar code reading, etc. In traditional setups, the adjustment for objects at different working distances is realized mechanically. With the shape changing polymer lenses, refocusing can be achieved in milliseconds without any mechanical translation involved, enabling compact, robust and dust free optical systems.
EyeVision 3.0 also supports the Optotune lenses and is therefore suitable for fast changing applications. The software even offers an extra command in the graphical user interface. With the new plug-in the user is able to create commands and insert them in the EyeVision GUI.
This new feature of EyeVision 3.0 software offers the user advantages such as time savings, higher accuracy and a compact visual system.
