Deploying with version 3 and prior » Could deploy projects only to Matrox Iris GT smart cameras Matrox Design Assistant 4 February 2014

Deploying with version 4 » Can deploy projects to any PC and/or Matrox Iris GT smart cameras Matrox Design Assistant 4 February 2014 Preliminary

Fundamental concepts » Develop an inspection and deploy it to a PC and/or Matrox Iris GT smart camera » PC and smart camera are running the same underlining vision library (MIL) thus producing the same results » Simplifies and reduces training, development and maintenance Matrox Design Assistant 4 February 2014 Preliminary

Key features » Deploy the same project on the development PC, a remote PC or a Matrox Iris GT smart camera » Capture from Gig. E Vision® (GEV) and USB 3 Vision™ (U 3 V) standard cameras » A single project can handle multiple cameras » Provides native support for both 32 -bit and 64 -bit Windows® Matrox Design Assistant 4 February 2014 Preliminary

Key features » Supports TCP / UDP, Ether. Net/IP™, MODBUS® and PROFINET communication » Serial communication depending on PC » Gives basic access to discrete I/Os on supported Matrox Imaging hardware » Real-time I/O support on Matrox 4 Sight GPm Matrox Design Assistant 4 February 2014 Preliminary

Key features » Direct communication with select robot controllers (ABB, Epson and Fanuc) for 2 D vision-guided robotics (VGR) Matrox Design Assistant 4 February 2014 Preliminary

Key features » Includes separate Matrox Multi. Cam. HMI application » Multi project viewer for projects running on separate PCs and/or smart cameras » Provides access to a project’s operator interface on an individual basis » Source code is provided for customization Matrox Design Assistant 4 February 2014 Preliminary

Matrox Multi. Cam. HMI Matrox Design Assistant 4 February 2014 Preliminary

Key features » Includes a Profiler tool to verify which flowchart steps take the longest to run and should thus be optimized first Matrox Design Assistant 4 February 2014 Preliminary

Key features » Includes MIL Control Center for centralized access to associated tools and utilities Matrox Design Assistant 4 February 2014 Preliminary

Key features » Includes Matrox Capture Assistant for verifying and troubleshooting connections to Gig. E Vision® cameras Matrox Design Assistant 4 February 2014 Preliminary

Packaging » Matrox Design Assistant 4 OR will be » included with specific SKUs of Matrox Iris GT smart camera » pre-installed on specific SKUs of Matrox 4 Sight GPm » sold separately for generic PCs Matrox Design Assistant 4 February 2014 Preliminary

With Matrox Iris GT » Run-time pre-installed and pre-licensed on specific smart camera SKUs as today » Model Finder and String Reader require a supplemental license sold separately » Media provided to install IDE on host PC » IDE is licensed when connected to smart camera Matrox Design Assistant 4 February 2014 Preliminary

With Matrox Iris GT » Project runs within IDE if connected to smart camera or deployed to smart camera » Separate emulation license allows project to run within IDE without smart camera » Provided as part of software maintenance » Requires yearly renewal » Pricing of specific smart camera SKUs remains the same Matrox Design Assistant 4 February 2014 Preliminary

With Matrox 4 Sight GPm » IDE (design-time) and run-time to be preinstalled and pre-licensed on specific Matrox 4 Sight GPm SKUs » Run-time license (MIL) same as Matrox Iris GT plus camera Interface (GEV and U 3 V) » Model Finder and String Reader require a supplemental license sold separately Matrox Design Assistant 4 February 2014 Preliminary

For generic PCs » Separate software toolkit (like MIL development toolkit) » To include media to install design-time (IDE) and/or run-time environments Matrox Design Assistant 4 February 2014 Preliminary

For generic PCs » Also to include a design/run-time license USB dongle » Same run-time license (MIL) as Matrox Iris GT plus camera Interface (GEV and U 3 V), Model Finder and String Reader » Additional run-time (MIL) licenses to be purchased separately Matrox Design Assistant 4 February 2014 Preliminary

Target customers » Any user needing scalability » Start with a single smart camera » Move to PC with GEV/U 3 V camera when you need more processing power, faster frame rate or higher resolution » Same project; just different deployment platform Matrox Design Assistant 4 February 2014 Confidential

Target customers » Any user needing two or more cameras for a given project » Matrox 4 Sight GPm or any PC with several GEV/U 3 V cameras provides a more costeffective solution than deploying multiple smart cameras Matrox Design Assistant 4 February 2014 Confidential

Target customers » Any user using both smart cameras and PC solutions » Learn a single development environment for both platforms » Lower maintenance / service costs Matrox Design Assistant 4 February 2014 Confidential
