Zebra - Aurora Design Assistant, Integrated Development Environment (IDE) Software
- Solve machine vision applications efficiently by constructing flowcharts instead of writing program code, using field-proven tools for analyzing, classifying, locating, measuring, reading and verifying
- Use a single program for creating both application logic and operator interface
- Leverage deep learning for visual inspection through image classification and segmentation tools
- Rely on a common underlying vision library for the same results with an Iris GTX smart camera, vision systems or third-part computer
- Work with multiple cameras all within the same project or per project running concurrently and independently from one another, platform permitting
- Interface to Zebra AltiZ and third party 3D sensors to visualize, process and analyze depth maps and point clouds
- Communication options include discrete Zebra I/Os, RS-232, and Ethernet (TCP/IP, CC-Link IE Field Basic, EtherNet/IP, Modbus, OPC UA, and PROFINET, and native robot interfaces)
- Maximize productivity with instant feedback on image analysis and processing operations
- Receive immediate pertinent assistance through an integrated contextual guide
- Maintain control and independence through the ability to create custom flowchart steps
- Test communication with PLC using the built-in PLC interface emulator
- Protect against inappropriate changes with the Project Change Validator tool
