‘Inspection Software’

An Engineeringtalk guide

Start with the news release Thermometers feature advanced signal processing from Ircon, which we summarised at the time by saying "Ircon has introduced the Modline 6 Series of infrared thermometers with advanced signal processing and background-reflected energy compensation capabilities. ". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Ansys software helps Ferrari improve comfort from Ansys: "Italian car manufacturer Ferrari is using software from Ansys to optimise automobile design and performance.".

In November 2009, we covered the news from Hamamatsu Photonics - take a look at CMOS digital photo IC for colour sensing which says: "Hamamatsu Photonics has introduced a 12-bit digital output colour sensor photo IC. ".

Take a look also at the news release from Sherborne Sensors, Sherborne announces MEMS inclinometers, as well as Laser Design system checks injection mould tooling from Laser Design, and NI expands HIL simulation platform from National Instruments.
