Library works with machine-vision software

Staff - May 1, 2006

New to Version 7.1 of MVTec's Halcon machine-vision software and HDevelop integrated development environment is the HDevelop Engine. HDevEngine is a library that works like an interpreter, allowing you to directly load and execute HDevelop programs and procedures from within a C++ application without having to run through a linking and compiling process. Halcon provides a library of more than 1150 operators for blob analysis, morphology, pattern matching, metrology, 3-D calibration, and binocular stereo vision. The software works with Windows, Linux, and Solaris and provides interfaces to more than 50 frame grabbers and hundreds of industrial cameras (analog, USB 2.0, IEEE 1394, and Gigabit Ethernet).MVTec Software, www.mvtec.com.
