Machine Vision

 

The combination of Basler's pylon driver package/software development kit (SDK) and our Basler scout, Basler pilot, and Basler runner series cameras represents a powerful tool. It lets users create sophisticated applications with less effort and supports the use of asynchronous events.

The Basler pilot and Basler scout cameras, for example, support an "end of exposure" event. In a system where multiple cameras are required, this feature can be used to make more efficient use of available bandwidth. An "end of exposure" event can be sent asynchronously from each camera in a fashion that is time independent from image transfer. The advantage is that an application can trigger the next image acquisition immediately, without waiting for the end of the image transfer.

The Basler runner line scan camera can signal two different events: "line start overtrigger" and "frame start overtrigger". These events let the user know that line acquisitions are being triggered too quickly and that some of the trigger signals are being lost. This feature supports the creation of more robust, failure-safe applications.

These are just two illustrations of how Basler provides a wide range of use case solutions. If you need specific assistance with your particular situation, please feel free to contact your local support team.
