Location Tools - PatMax RedLine Pattern, PatMax Pattern, PatMax RedLine Patterns (1-10) and PatMax Patterns (1-10)

Note:
  • From In-Sight firmware 5.5.0 and later, the tool's algorithm has been changed to return more accurate results and decrease the execution time in some circumstances.
  • Due to this change, when attempting to load a job containing this tool configured on the In-Sight firmware 5.5.0 or later to an In-Sight vision system running firmware version 5.4.x or earlier, an error message is displayed.
  • The PatMax RedLine Pattern Location Tool and PatMax RedLine Patterns (1-10) Location Tool are only available on In-Sight vision systems running In-Sight firmware 5.2.0 and later.

The PatMax RedLine Pattern Location Tool, PatMax Pattern Location Tool, PatMax RedLine Patterns (1-10) Location Tooland PatMax Patterns (1-10) Location Tool are used to locate the position of pattern features, using the PatMax RedLine or PatMax algorithm, based upon a trained representation of that pattern (called a Model). The PatMax RedLine Pattern and PatMax Pattern tools are used to locate a single pattern, while the PatMax RedLine Patterns (1-10) and PatMax Patterns (1-10) tools are used to locate up to 10 patterns.

Note: The tool reports X,Y coordinates in pixels, unless the image was calibrated to real-world units in Set Up Image.

These tools are useful in applications that require accurate positioning, such as vision guided robotic applications. These tools are also very useful as a Fixture for other vision tools, orienting their search within the image.
