Industrial vision forums are open to all
The UKIVA is adding two forum sessions to its popular free seminar programme at the IPOT/Machine Vision Show in February 2005 at the NEC.
UKIVA Director, Don Braggins, said: "I am delighted that our members can work together in this way".
"Although in some areas members are competitive, in others they are complementary".
"By harnessing complementary contributions from fellow members, National Instruments were able to add value to the forum and to broaden the topics covered".
"Our members are used to contributing to UKIVA seminars at the major trade shows, but I believe that this is the first time that some have collaborated independently".
The presentations were organised into tracks on vision and industrial automation.
The vision track covered the various technologies used in machine vision, including lighting, optics, different camera types, frame grabbers and configuring systems.
The industrial automation track covered a host of topics including developing an embedded data- logging system and ways of taking advantage of industrial switches and wireless access points to build distributed systems.
All the presentations from both tracks can be accessed from the National Instruments website.
