DATASENSOR SVS1 - Smart SVS Vision Sensors

SVS2 is an user-friendly and intuitive smart vision sensor offering excellent performances as far as speed and reliability are concerned. The sensor can be configured using a PC and is able to operate standing alone thanks to the completely embedded electronics.
The SVS2 Object Recognition series belongs to the SVS family, which will soon be completed with the introduction of the SVS1, SVS2 Advanced Object Recognition and SVS2 Identification models.

The SVS series of smart vision sensors offers the easiest way to solve the most common machine vision applications. A simple solution for packaging lines, food and beverage industries, automotive and electronic plants. The SVS series combines sophisticated technology with extremely simple functioning and thus represents the best easy-to-use solution to all vision control applications. SVS1 and SVS2 offer two different application approaches:

the SVS1 model guarantees the quickest and easiest setup via hand-held configurator;
the SVS2 can be connected to a PC and offers multiple controls on the same application. The SVS sensor is fully embedded, still offering extremely compact dimensions.

The SVS is an intelligent camera. Thus, both models, after configuration, can function standing alone without external control units.

SVS2 Object recognition
The SVS2 series of vision sensors offers all the characteristics able to solve machine vision problems in a flexible and intuitive manner. The SVS2 is configured using a PC and the sensor functions in stand-alone mode. SVS2 communicates with the PC via Ethernet. The IP address is automatically found by the Discovery function. The interface software is supplied with the product and has been studied to guide step-by-step the user in the creation of an image inspection. SVS2 Object Recognition is the basic version of the SVS2 series, which will be completed by the SVS2 Advanced Object Recognition (360° Geometric Pattern Match) and SVS2 Identification (Barcode, Datamatrix, OCV) models. All models have the same hardware whilst offering different softwares and thus suiting different applications. SVS2 Object Recognition is characterised by 7 different controls: Pattern Match, Contour Match, Position, Counting, Width, Contrast, Brightness. SVS2 combines simplicity and versatility. The sensor can store up to 20 different inspections, each of which can contain multiple controls on the same image. One sensor alone is able to contemporarily carry-out different controls on the same object, thus reducing installation time. The extremely compact size of the SVS sensors is not an obstacle for the full integration of all the elements for a reliable image-based control. The concept at the base of all vision applications consists in the object comparison with a faultless template image. The image sensor with 640x480 pixel resolution functions in an 8 bit grey scale and is able to acquire up to 60 images per second. The integrated red light LED based illuminator ensures excellent light control on the field of view. The front focus knob offers precise focussing and the configuration obtained remains stable thanks to the lock screw. The integrated interface is composed of 4 signalling LEDs and a teach-in button. The latter has a double function: template image updating and sensor unlock.
