Matrox Design Assistant X now offers additional 3D camera interfaces, expanded image classification using deep learning and acquisition from CoaXPress cameras.
Matrox® Imaging is proud to announce the upcoming release of Matrox Design Assistant® X version 2006, the latest expansion of this field-proven vision software offering. Matrox Design Assistant X includes a number of new enhancements and functionality, such as:
- Direct interfacing with the new Matrox AltiZ series of 3D profile sensors, as well as additional third-party sensors, for performing processing and analysis of depth maps.
- Coarse segmentation that uses deep learning to categorize image content, generating maps indicating the pre-established class and score for all image neighborhoods so users can detect defects in highly textured materials.
- Image acquisition from GigE Vision® or USB3 Vision®, and now, CoaXPress®, plus the ability to capture images from one or multiple CoaXPress® cameras by using Matrox Rapixo CXP frame grabbers.
- CC-Link IE Field Basic, along with EtherNet/IP, Modbus over TCP/IP, and PROFINET protocols for enhanced industrial communication, and direct interaction with programmable logic controllers (PLCs).
- A PLC interface emulator for testing communication with a PLC without needing one at hand.
This latest software update extends to the Matrox Iris GTR smart cameras and Matrox 4Sight EV6 vision controllers bundled with Matrox Design Assistant X, expanding the features, functionality, and connectivity of these capable machine vision platforms.
