VISOR redefines vision sensor standards
SensoPart introduces the latest software update for its VISOR series. With this free update, SensoPart enhances the VISOR vision sensors with top-notch features for precise contour checks and individual markings, previously only available in significantly more expensive and complex vision systems.

Perfect shape control
The 'Contour Check' detector allows for the precise comparison of object contours with a previously taught reference contour, ensuring fast and reliable error detection. This significantly contributes to improving production quality and reducing waste. The detector is applicable across a wide range of industrial applications - from plastics processing and metalworking to assembly technology.
Increased transparency and efficiency
The new 'Individual Overlays' function enables VISOR users to display relevant information and results directly in the image. For instance, it allows for colouring based on the result, which can be easily set up with just a few clicks. The immediate visualisation of all essential data facilitates system maintenance and promotes rapid error detection and correction. Additionally, the function enhances transparency in the production process, leading to greater overall acceptance.
Solving measurement applications and enhancing safety
The release also includes expanded result processing functions, including new operators for robotics applications and new measurement functions. These new functions make it easier to solve measurement tasks precisely and simply with the VISOR. It is now possible to accurately assign lines to the objects captured in the image and calculate distances to lines as well as intersections between the detected lines.
Another highlight is the newly introduced device password protection, meeting the security requirements of an increasingly connected production environment. This protection mechanism ensures that only authorised users have access to device settings, thus protecting against unwanted access and cyber threats.
