NI Vision Builder for Automated Inspection (AI)

Vision Builder AI can help you easily configure, benchmark, and deploy a vision system that addresses vision applications from pattern matching to code reading and presence detection to precision alignment and classification.

With Vision Builder AI, you can perform the following tasks:

  • Acquire and process images with any NI frame grabber, NI Compact Vision System, NI Embedded Vision System, NI Smart Cameras as well as GigE Vision, IEEE 1394 cameras, and USB DirectShow cameras
  • Configure more than 100 powerful machine vision tools including geometric matching, optical character recognition (OCR), and particle analysis
  • Set up complex pass/fail decisions based on inspection results
  • Communicate triggering and inspection results directly over digital I/O, serial, and Ethernet protocols
  • Use the default deployment interface or customize your own

Vision Builder AI simplifies the development and maintenance process by replacing the complexities of programming with an interactive menu-driven development environment, without sacrificing performance or range of functionality
