GOOD NEWS—THE COGNEX VISIONPRO 10 VISION SOFTWARE IS HERE

The good news is that Cognex has recently upgraded the original VisionPro vision software and added innovative technologies to release the VisionPro 10, which is easier to operate, higher performance, easier to integrate, and shorter development cycles.

VisionPro 10 is an innovative software that incorporates one* vision technology to rapidly deploy highly customizable applications for challenging vision applications using extensive tool prototyping through an intuitive graphical interface. With hybrid intelligence tools and deep learning technology, including rule-based, it's ready to meet the visual challenges of today and tomorrow.

The industry's first intelligent toolset

The VisionPro 10 smart tool is the first of its kind in computer vision. These smart tools, including 2D vision and deep learning technology, combine all the best features of rule-based vision and machine learning to form a powerful and versatile tool. The first VisionPro smart tool, Smart Line, enables fast and dynamic line finding with sub-pixel accuracy using intelligent algorithms. So whether it's inspection or robot guidance, Cognex vision software provides proven and reliable vision tools.

Modular design simplifies program integration and shortens development cycles

VisionPro 10 makes it easier to solve a wide range of visual challenges by providing fast and flexible application development through the QuickBuild environment. The QuickBuild prototyping environment provides an easy-to-use graphical interface to configure acquisition, selection, and optimization tools, as well as pass/fail judgments with no programming experience required. Coupled with scripting capabilities, QuickBuild can be used to solve challenging visual tasks. The modular ToolBlock also enables users to quickly create and reuse components, further simplifying and shortening development.

Unmatched programming flexibility

In addition to the .NET programming interface (C# API), VisionPro 10 offers greater programming flexibility with the new C++ API for maximum customization and configurability.

Integrate deep learning with ease

The VisionPro 10 now makes it easier to integrate Cognex's deep learning technology. Using QuickBuild's intuitive drag-and-drop interface, users can load trained VisionPro Deep Learning workspaces and link them to any VisionPro tool for pre- or post-processing. Integration into popular development environments simplifies application deployment and gives users more flexibility when creating custom solutions.
