MIL CoPilot interactive environment

Included with MIL X is MIL CoPilot, an interactive environment to facilitate and accelerate the evaluation and prototyping of an application. This includes configuring the settings or context of MIL X vision tools. The same environment can also initiate—and therefore shorten—the application development process through the generation of MIL X program code.

Running on 64-bit Windows, MIL CoPilot provides interactive access to MIL X processing and analysis operations via a familiar contextual ribbon menu design. It includes various utilities to study images and help determine the best analysis tools and settings for a given project. Also available are utilities to generate a custom encoded chessboard calibration target and edit images. Applied operations are recorded in an Operation List, which can be edited at any time, and can also take the form of an external script. An Object Browser keeps track of MIL X objects created during a session and gives convenient access to these at any moment. Non-image results are presented in tabular form and a table entry can be identified directly on the image. The annotation of results onto an image is also configurable. MIL CoPilot presents dedicated workspaces for training one of the supplied deep learning neural networks for Classification.These workspaces feature a simplified user interface that reveals only the functionality needed to accomplish the training task like an image label mask editor. Another specialized workspace is provided to batch-process images from an input to an output folder.
Once an operation sequence is established, it can be converted into functional program code in any language supported by MIL X. The program code can take the form of a command-line executable or dynamic link library (DLL); this can be packaged as a Visual Studio project, which in turn can be built without leaving MIL CoPilot. All work carried out in a session is saved as a workspace for future reference and sharing with colleagues.

Matrox Profiler
Matrox Profiler is a Windows-based utility to post-analyze the execution of a multi-threaded application for performance bottlenecks and synchronization issues. It presents the function calls made over time per application thread on a navigable timeline. Matrox Profiler allows the searching for, and selecting of, specific function calls to see their parameters and execution times. It computes statistics on execution times and presents these on a per function basis. Matrox Profiler tracks not only MIL X functions but also suitably tagged user functions. Function tracing can be disabled altogether to safeguard the inner working of a deployed application.

A flowchart is put together using a step-by-step approach, where each step is taken from an existing toolbox and is configured interactively. Inputs for a subsequent step—which can be images, 3D data, or alphanumeric results—are easily linked to the outputs of a previous step. Decision-making is performed using a flow-control step, where the logical expression is described interactively. Results from analysis and processing steps are immediately displayed to permit the quick tuning of parameters. A contextual guide provides assistance for every step in the flowchart. Flowchart legibility is maintained by grouping steps into sub-flowcharts. A recipes facility enables a group of analysis and processing steps to have different configurations for neatly handling variations of objects or features of interest within the same flowchart. In addition to flowchart design, Matrox Design Assistant X enables the creation of a custom, web-based operator interface to the application through an integrated HTML visual editor. Users alter an existing template using a choice of annotations (graphics and text), inputs (edit boxes, control buttons, and image markers), and outputs (original or derived results, status indicators, and charts). A filmstrip view is also available to keep track of and navigate to previously analyzed images. The operator interface can be further customized using a third-party HTML editor. Custom flowchart steps Users have the ability to extend the capabilities of Matrox Design Assistant X by way of the included Custom Step software development kit (SDK). The SDK, in combination with Microsoft Visual Studio® 2019 or 2022, enables the creation of custom flowchart steps using the C# programming language. These steps can implement proprietary analysis and processing, as well as proprietary communication protocols. The SDK comes with numerous project samples to accelerate development. Application deployment Once development is complete, the project—with flowchart(s) and operator interface(s)—is deployed either locally or remotely. Local deployment is to the same computer or Matrox Imaging vision controller as was used for development. Remote deployment is to a different computer, including Matrox Imaging vision controllers, or a Matrox Imaging smart camera. Project templates for quicker start-up Matrox Design Assistant X includes a series of project templates and video tutorials to help new developers get up and running quickly. These templates serve as either functional applications or application frameworks intended as a foundation for a target application.

The project templates address typical application areas, with examples for: Barcode and 2D code readingMeasurementPresence/absenceRecipesRobot guidance (pick-and-place)Dot-matrix text reading (SureDotOCR®)Color checking Customizable developer interface The Matrox Design Assistant X user interface can be tailored by each developer. The workspace can be rearranged, even across multiple monitors, to suit individual preferences and further enhance productivity. Project Change ValidatorProject Change Validator is a utility employing a client-server architecture for ensuring that changes made to a deployed project are not detrimental to the functioning of that project. It provides the ability to record reference images—along with the associated inspection settings and results, for a given project. This archived reference data is then used to validate changes made to the project. Changes are validated by running the modified project with the reference data and comparing the projects’ operation against this data. Validation is performed by the server—typically running on a separate computer—which is reachable over a network. The Matrox Design Assistant X management portal provides access to the validation data and results. Validation requests are made on demand from the management portal, an automation controller, or an HMI panel. Project Change Validator (view from management portal) PLC interface emulation While developing a project in Matrox Design Assistant X, the PLC interface emulator is used to test communication in instances when a physical one is not connected. Values can be changed and viewed dynamically to test the communication between the project and the PLC. The PLC interface emulator supports CC-Link IE Field Basic, EtherNet/IP2, MODBUS over TCP/IP, and PROFINET protocols for communication; these can be activated and controlled from the management portal. Connect to devices and networks Matrox Design Assistant X can capture images from any CoaXPress, GigE Vision, or USB3 Vision compliant camera. Image capture from CoaXPress cameras happens with the use of a Matrox Rapixo CXP frame grabber. For GigE Vision cameras, the exact capture time can be obtained from IEEE 1588 timestamps. The software can communicate over Ethernet networks using the TCP/IP as well as the CC-Link IE Field Basic, EtherNet/IP2, Modbus over TCP/IP, and PROFINET protocols, enabling interaction with programmable logic/automation controllers.

Liebherr is making its expertise in the field of industrial robot vision applications available to a wide user group with the LHRobotics.Vision technology packages The technology packages consist of a projector-based vision camera system for optical data collection and software for object identification and selection, collision-free withdrawal of parts, and robot path planning to the stacking point. SoftwareBasic license:suitable for customers who only need to roughly set the gripped workpiece down. Path planning is not necessarily required for this. Due to the lack of robot model and obstacles, it is also suitable for customers who place less value on collision checking outside the bin, for example in cases where the gripper is never able to fully enter the bin.Pro license: The professional license offers unrestricted use of the LHRobotics.Vision software. This license is particularly suitable for customers who place value on full collision checking of the path from removal to possible stacking Smart bin-picking software Design a complex application without any programming knowledge at all. LHRobotics.Vision makes it possible. The intuitive graphical user interface enables quick entry of all necessary information using simple steps, starting with: - Attaching workpieces - Configuration of transport containers- Models can be created directly in the software for simple geometry, or existing CAD data can be imported Step by step to the right grip In order to be able to realistically represent withdrawal of parts including all axis movements in the software, highly detailed grippers are created – even bendable grippers or a 7th or 8th axis can be represented. The interfering contour takes into account the current status of the gripper – open or closed. Again, existing CAD data can be accessed. When the workpiece and gripper meet, the task is to define suitable picking positions. This can be done by visually positioning the gripper or by precisely defining the coordinates. Degrees of freedom can be tested, and even realistic removal cycles can be simulated with the LHRobotics.Vision Sim plugin. This enables the optimization of the gripper already within the software. Integrated simulation possibilities with LHRobotics.Vision Sim If changes are necessary, for example modified or completely new parts are to be gripped, you'll want to test in advance if it works. In our option package LHRobotics.Vision Sim, this possibility is included. As offline programming, i.e. without intervening in the running cell, the feasibility can be tested. The entire process can therefore be tested in the cell and put into operation in advance. The environment in view Once parts and grippers have been created, the periphery follows. The robot used is selected from the library to check the work area. Any obstacles can be taken into account: - Input of obstacles present in the robot’s work area - Hand-eye calibration of the system between sensor and robot - Definition of framework conditions for collision-free withdrawal of parts - Path planning
