The EyeVision Machine Vision Software and EyeVision 3D Software offers solutions for different applications, such as e.g.:
EyeVision is synonymous for “zero-error-production”, a reduction of production time, for quality and production acceleration and therefore als for a higher customer satisfaction.
Thanks to fast installation and univeral usage, the software creates a fast, efficient and cost-effective solution for all applications.
EyeVision supports line scan, matrix, color, gray scale, thermal imaging and 3D senaors with interfaces:
The image processing software runs on ARM, x86, x64 and MIPS.
MIPI CSI-2 is already an important interface for mobile devices like smart phones or tablets, but also in image processing and many Embedded Vision applications it plays an important role.
EyeVision supports MIPI sensors by Allied Vision Technology, Basler, Vision Components and Raspberry Pi. This is a list which will grow even longer.
The EyeVision software has commands for character recognition and verification and code reading for example:
The EyeVision software can read any common bar codes, such as e.g.:
The software can read the code in any position and rotation.
The EyeVision software can also read DMC codes in any position and rotation in the image.
The DMC code can even be read when:
Furthermore the EyeVision software can easily read QR codes. Only one command in the software is necessary and it does not need any complex programming. Its very easy-to-handle.
Codes can also be saved and used for further processes.
Code reading can be used manyfold in the quality control process:
The EyeVision software contains commands for OCR/OCV. For that the surface, the quality of the characters, etc. does not matter. EyeVision OCR command can read characters also under contrarious environments.
Also characters on the smallest parts, such as electronic chips can be read.
For the automatic detection of defects on structured surfaces.
The EyeVision software has the ML Homogeneity Inspector for such tasks.
With the Deep Learning surface inspection tool the following defects can be detected:
And that works completely dynamic and automatic.
The identification of defects on surfaces is a special challange. For example the defects on complex functional and aesthetic technical surfaces. Deep Learning offers a new solution for those difficulties. Because it works without pre-definition of the expected defects. And also without the configuration of an inspection program.
The EyeVision Thermo software offers commands for the thermal measurement and inspection tasks for industrial thermal imaging.
Even demanding evaluations of thermal images can be carried out graphically with the powerful command set. For example in the fields of:

Object detection via automatic, visual inspection is an important task. It is part of many industrial processes, such as in:
To detect a specific object with visual inspection is task, which is used in different industries.
We would like to give you some examples.
Quality control is as ever a difficult task in the production process and many processes still rely on the human eye.
The image processing and especially EyeVision can help you here. No matter if electronic-, pharmacheutical- or food and beverage industry.
EyeVision can differentiate between the wrong and the right component part, or detect if a cookie package is not correctly closed. Also EyeVision can detect in a gear wheel has enough spikes or if a blister packaging contains mixed up pills.
EyeVision can also be applied in inventory control. Objects can be tracked in real time, as there can be objects added and removed any time.
A good inventory control saves the company much time, space and labor costs.
With EyeVision the sorting can be handled completely automatically. It saves time, costs and labor and also reduces errors.
For example in agriculture, sorting plays an important role. Especially for example to differentiate the ripe tomatos from the still green tomatos, or the damaged apples from the flawless apples.
But also other industries such as electronic or stamping part industry, count on automated sorting.
And combined with the Deep Learning / Machine Learning, also defects on surfaces can be easily detected.
Nowadays we have completely automated conveyor belts and assembly lines, even for complex products as cars.
To offer the modern automated assembly line some more flexibility, it is important to teach the machines to locate objects and place them correctly.
With EyeVision a robot can be controled and the object exactly located.
EyeVision can recognize and inspect color. Therefore the software has special color commands for the inspection of color-based quality characteristics. The color recognition is carried out with the highest precision and speed.
In many industrial environments color control is an important part of the quality control. Color defects can render products dead stock or lead to customer complaints. The impression of color is but subjectiv. Therefore sometimes an impression of color aberration can occur. The task for EyeVision is to maintain the color aberrations in a tolerable range.
The recognition of color is important for many industrial application such as e.g.:
Applications for color inspection can be manyfold and can be found in all industries:
With the commands of the EyeVision software bottle inspection for the bottle and beverage production can be carried out.
The EyeVision software inspects if
The bottle inspection also includes the inspection of the label.
EyeVision inspects:
EyeVision inspects for:
EyeVision can also be applied to the inspection of the preform during bottle production. The software inspects:
In bottling plants the EyeVision software can check the fill level. For example to check if the fill level is matched by every bottle, an image of the bottle neck is captured and the fill level measured.
Additionally there are many other inspection applications when it comes to the beverage industry, such as e.g.:
With the EyeVision Software component parts with a geometry that is difficult to access can be inspected, for example the inside of a drilling hole.
We inspect the internal screw threads for
We inspect external threads (metric threads and threads measured in inches) for
With the EyeVision the thread inspection is carried out with only one single command. The drag-and-drop function makes the handling of the software even easier. Therefore it is possible to create an inspection program for the thread inspection without any programming skills.
Additionally the thread inspection with EyeVision offers:
The Thread Inspector combines the functions and advantages of the EyeVision software with the emSys hardware.
With the Ready-to-Use Thread Inspector the internal and external screw thread inspection can be integrated into any inspection plant and any robot. In addition existing inspection systems can be extended easily with this screw inspection.
The key function of the EyeVision 3D software is the capture and evaluation of 3D-images (point clouds).
Based on the point cloud, EyeVision 3D has several commands for:
With the 3D-camera system EyeScan 3D, EVT offers the EyeVision users an easy access to the third dimension.
3D-Sensors are applicable in all industries, such as for:With the bin-picking command of the EyeVision 3D software it is possible to:
With the 3D-Matching of the EyeVision 3D it is possible to detect the shape and position of any, previously configured object, with only one 3D sensor. Therefore it is possible to pick even parts in comlicated shapes.
With EyeVision 3D a quick image capture of the component part’s surface is carried out and the 3D point clouds are used directly in the EyeVision 3D interface to calculate the respective position of each single part.
EyeVision 3D is the base for numerous systems in the industrial automation, as well as demanding services.
The software offers 3D measurements in the production process, in the field of 3D Robot Vision, as well as packaging and logistics, measurement and comparison in 3D.
With the EyeVision 3D pins of every kind can be measured for their correct position and reeling circle.
The EyeVision 3D software can carry out a measurement of the so called true point. These are gauges to measure connector tolerances and staggering of the pins.
The software also can measure the embedment depth of the pins. Thanks to the 3D inspection it is possible to measure the height of the pin tips. Those are not only measured in theire x- and y-direction but also the z-direction.
Furthermore the system can detect flaws such as e.g. if the connector pins are bent, if the pins are stuck to deeply into the housing or if the pins stick out too far out of the housing.
The ProfileMatch command is a Matchin Tool for 1D applications, such as e.g. to inspect a weld seam or adhesive bead.
Only a few steps have to be carried out by the user:
The Profile Match Tool raises an alarm in cases of errors such as “plain”. That are so called “warts”, which describe errors, where for example a weld seam is too thick, or shapes too much plain, respectively. There is also an error called “holes”. That describes errors, where for example a weld seam is disrupted or the weld seam is too thin.
Errors could be for example:
With the EyeVision 3D software it is easy to inspect adhesive beads and sealing beads.
For this tasks EVT has developed the Sealant Inspector.
The Sealant Inspector of the EyeVision 3D software inspects glue and sealing beads for:
The WSV (WeldSeam Vision®) is a weld seam inspection system for the inspection of laser and MIG/MAG-weld seams.

Features WeldSeam Vision®:
The Smart 3D Profile Inspector allows the Single-Button-Training of any profiles. Therefore the profile can be repeatably inspected for flawlessness in the production. Most tasks can be therefore realized in the field of profile production and inspection.
The system has a GigE PoE interface, which is connected to the DIN-rail module. There you have also 8 digital inputs and 8 digital outputs in 24 V technology to emit a signal in case of an error or to communicate with a PLC. Alternatively you can communicate with a PLC via the Ethernet interface. There are also TCP/IP, UDP as well as Profinet and Modbus communication available, which makes the integration very easy.
The Saturn 3D laser triangulation sensor with Linux OS and PoE (Power over Ethernet) can process high data rates supported by the integrated FPGA. The extremely compact and innovative 3D sensor has an encoder interface and with profile rates of up to 6 kHz allows for a high-precision 3D profiling. The Saturn 3D is available with different laser option such as red and blue lasers, depending on customer wishes.
To simplify the integration and to visualize the latest inspection live, the DIN-rail module has a HDMI and USB interface. With monitor, mouse and keyboard the system can be adjusted intuitively. There is the Single-Button-Training function available for the user to also integrate further inspections. When inspecting the profile, it is compared with the taught-in profile.
In addition other measurements can be carried out to e.g. secure the functional dimensions. For example when inspecting a windscreen wiper, you can inspect the shape and in addition the angle and the width of the wiper lips can be measured also. The number of inspection is not limited. Therefore the user is free to carry out any measurements.
The adaption of the measurement and inspection applications is carried out completely graphically, or in the Single-Button-Mode with a golden part.
