Microscan, a specialist in barcode, machine vision and lighting solutions, has announced the latest innovation as part of its AutoVision machine vision suite, CloudLink web HMI.
A machine vision visualisation tool for AutoVision, CloudLink enables users to monitor live machine vision inspections performed by AutoVision software and smart cameras in an interface that’s accessible via web browser on any web-enabled device (such as PCs, HMIs, tablets and smart phones).
Machine vision inspection jobs in AutoVision are uniquely portable across hardware, software, industrial systems and mobile platforms and devices. The CloudLink web-based HMI greatly expands AutoVision’s cross-platform flexibility, giving users the freedom to view inspection operations from anywhere at any time.
Based on a machine vision inspection job created in AutoVision Machine Vision Software, CloudLink can display values from the inspection job that have been linked to a shared data service over industrial protocols by AutoVision’s one-click connectivity tool, Microscan Link. These values include images taken by the machine vision camera and the results of tools applied to the image by the software, such as Measure, Count, Decode, Verify, and more.
The customisable CloudLink Dashboard provides users with default widgets for the easiest way to create a tailored window of inspection results within a single view in a browser. Widgets can be added to the Dashboard to display values in different formats, from images to data to charts and graphs.
Since it is web-based, CloudLink does not require any software to be installed on the device that’s used to monitor inspection operations.
