In tough economic times, there is simply no faster, more efficient way to increase productivity and quality on your production lines than through the use of machine vision systems.

It is now possible to deploy a full-featured vision system... with an operator interface... in a matter of minutes! Total cost? $5,000.

Plus - there is absolutely no programming experienced required.

Earlier this year, Cognex released a host of new technologies which are revolutionizing the industry. This three hour workshop is designed to highlight these new technologies and show you how to setup a complete system from Cognex.

All guests will receive a complimentary copy of InSight Explorer 4.2 - the latest vision software from Cognex. Using this software, our staff of engineers will teach you how to:

1. connect to a camera
2. adjust I/O parameters
3. adjust exposure times
4. create a vision job
5. communicate inspection results to external devices (e.g. PLC, HMI, motion controller, etc.)
6. save the vision job to camera
7. and much more!

There will be plenty of time throughout the day to address your application-specific questions. All guests should bring a laptop PC running Windows XP or Vista in order to participate. Please feel free to bring your parts to the seminar, as well.

This seminar is free to attend, but due to space restrictions, advanced registration is required. There are 30 seats available.

Please let me know if you have any questions - I look forward to seeing you at the seminar.
