#24 - Geometric measurements - Software

🧠 Software – the brain of geometric optical measurements

What does the software do?
⤷ Detects edges and contours
⤷ Determines dimensions and positions
⤷ Filters out defects
⤷ Decides whether the product passes or fails

Why isn’t an open-source library enough?
⤷ It requires programming knowledge
⤷ Less user-friendly
⤷ Customers often want to modify their own measurement logic
⤷ Changing production conditions (material, machining, position) often require fine-tuning later

This is why we use industrial “boxed” software solutions that:
⤷ Handle the camera
⤷ Include an integrated, ready-to-use toolbox
⤷ Can be customized quickly
⤷ Are stable in production-line environments

The software cost is often one of the largest parts of the entire system, so choosing the right solution requires careful consideration.

ProDSP systems include fully integrated software. If you’re looking for an AOI system, we’re happy to help. 😁
