Abstract:
1. A machine vision system comprising: a first vision processor (VP) on a first VP computing platform and a second vision processor (VP) on a second VP computing platform, the first VP computing platform and the second VP computing platform being connected to a network; and at least one machine vision user interface (UI) in communication via the network with the first VP, the at least one machine vision UI including a graphical representation of a link function that enables configuration of the second VP using the at least one machine vision UI in communication with the first VP; wherein the first VP instructs the second VP to perform at least part of a machine vision task, the machine vision task being configured by the at least one UI through the first VP to perform at least part of the machine vision task upon execution of the link function from the first VP to establish communication between the second VP and the machine vision UI.
