LMI Upgrades Recognition And Metrology Software

LMI Technologies has announced the release of Version 4.1 of its Hexsight software for high-accuracy recognition and metrology. The new V4.1 Hexsight software adds further support for colour image processing and hardware acceleration. According to Terry Arden, the company's chief executive officer, Hexsight 4.1 is a recognition and metrology library suitable for deployment on PCs and now embedded platforms such as the Sony Intelligent Camera product line.

Hexsight's geometric pattern recognition technology offers the flexible contour-based identification of objects unaffected by scale, orientation, lighting, occlusion, clutter, contrast reversal or even subtle colour variation. After finding objects, Hexsight delivers a flexible set of metrology tools to measure and confirm that the parts meet key tolerances. To maximise the capabilities of the software, Hexsight 4.1 incorporates a range of third-party camera and frame-grabber support.

The latest release adds support for fully compliant GigE vision cameras, adding to the current capability to work with any IEEE 1394(Firewire) and USB camera that uses a Directshow driver. Hexsight 4.1 is suitable for a range of machine-vision challenges, including road sign detection, solar wafer inspection, shirt tag location and analyses, optical character recognition, brake-pad inspection and part sorting and sizing.
