Industrial Vision Systems (IVS) and sister company NeuroCheck have launched NeuroCheck 6.0 – 64-Bit Edition. Re-engineered for the latest software environment, it is said to offer manufacturers improvements in inspection processing, manufacturing integration and audit tracking as well as support for the latest high-resolution color digital cameras and multi-core CPUs.
NeuroCheck is an integrated software application used for inspection, guidance, identification, metrology, tracking and counting in mission-critical inspection systems. The new version takes account of the trend towards the 64-bit edition of the Microsoft Windows 7 operating system. In contrast to the 32 bit edition which was limited to using 4GB of main memory (RAM), the 64-bit edition can address much more RAM.
“The move to 64 bit is critical for the machine vision industry,” states Christian Demant, director of IVS. “With ever increasing sensor resolutions and full color processing in every function of our NeuroCheck vision system, the 64 bit environment offers us the ability to address more RAM enabling the processing of very large images in real time.”
In addition to the 64-bit support the new software version offers new functionality to help engineers deploying the vision system and for those engineers tasked with supporting the systems on the shop floor. The new ‘Project Directory Concept’ within the software allows engineers to easily set-up, deploy and support a number of projects in parallel with different configurations and settings for each vision project. For engineers responsible for multiple vision systems across a factory it offers fast and easy administration of all their deployed machine vision solutions.
