Easy to use Motoman support with Scorpion Vision Software

Oslo, Norway - 31. May 2003
Contact : Thor Vollset, Tordivel AS

We are proud to announce a new Scorpion plugin available in all Scorpion versions.

The MotoMan plugin is used to interface MOTOMAN robots via a serial communication line using the MOTOMAN library MotoCom32.

The following example scenario is easily supported:

  • Robot sends product information and camera trigger to Scorpion
  • Scorpion capture image and locates products
  • Scorpion sends position - x,y,angle and status to robot

Scorpion Vision Software is the independent, flexible and cost effective solution ideal for robot vision.

Do it yourself ! - Buy a Scorpion Starter kit and attend two days Scorpion Training in June  

Scorpion Starter Kit - the perfect introduction for making your own Vision solutions. 
The kit includes a Scorpion Enterprise software license and a 2 days training course where you learn how to use Scorpion Vision Software™. 
Due to the easy to use imaging tools and the standard but configurable user interface, the course participants are able to configure their own applications, and establish communication links to control systems. 
Bring your own notebook and you will have a Vision system running during the course that can later be configured to a real application. 
No programming skills are required, but general engineering knowledge about light and lenses including some practice with other engineering software like AutoCad or others, may ease the start up phase.

In June we have training in Norway and Sweden: 

  • Monday 16. and Tuesday 17. June 2003, Oslo, Norway, Invitation in Norwegian
  • Wednesday 18. and Thursday 19. June 2003, Ljungby, Sweden, Invitation in Swedish

The course material is in English and we welcome english speaking participants.
