Adding Vision Tools
Adding a vision tool is also referred to as Creating the tool (you are creating an instance of the
tool).
Each vision tool is configured using its corresponding object editor.
Tools can be linked together using the Relative To parameter in the object editor, which
allows the results of one tool to become the input for another tool. For example, you could
use one tool to do a preliminary coarse search, and then use other tools to "zoom in" on a
region of interest.
1. To add a new vision tool, right-click in the Tree structure of the Workspace Explorer
and select:
New > Vision > Tool > [Vision Tool Name]
The selected vision tool is added to the AdeptSight workspace and the corresponding
object editor opens.
For example,
a. Right-click in the Tree structure.
b. Select New > Vision > Tool > Locator Model from the menu.
A Locator Model tool is added to the workspace and opens the corresponding object
editor, as shown in the following figure:
