Chromasens 3D machine-vision cameras integrate with MVTec image-processing software

April 21, 2015

Chromasens is now a member of the MVTec Image Acquisition Partner network.

Image processing and image capture specialists Chromasens (Konstanz, Germany) have become a member of the MVTec [trade mark] Image Acquisition Partner network; that is, a network of companies committed to improving machine vision standard software worldwide. The network is expected to help culltivate a strong collaborative working relationship with MVTec Software (Munich, Germany) and ensure that the company's engineering team has the most up-to-date knowledge of Chromasens cameras for optimal image acquisition.

The new partnership has resulted in the successful integration of the Chromasens 3DPIXA [trade mark] 3D stereo line scan camera into MVTec's HALCON [trade mark] image processing software, making it possible for programmers to design and perform 3D image processing applications quickly and efficiently. The companies say that HALCON is one of the world's most widely used software libraries for machine vision applications with thousands of users around the globe. Integrating the 3DPIXA camera into the HALCON platform enables the capture and evaluation of highly precise 3D images using the software's wide array of vision tools.

MVTec Software says it is a leading international manufacturer of software for machine vision used in all demanding areas of imaging: semiconductor industry, web inspection, quality control and inspection applications in general, medicine, surveillance
