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.

This three hour workshop is designed to highlight new technologies and show you how to setup a complete vision system.

All guests will receive a complimentary copy of 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 monring 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 20 seats available. We will provide lunch.
