National Instruments adds machine vision capabilities to NI CompactRIO and NI Single-Board RIO hardware devices, providing an integrated measurement and control platform for industrial and embedded systems. CompactRIO thus becomes a programmable automation controller to perform vision tasks. It is specially designed for usage in autonomous and semi-autonomous robotics applications for obstacle avoidance, pattern recognition and simultaneous localization and mapping, where advanced control and vision functionality are required. Industrial surveillance applications served include both machine condition monitoring and critical vessel monitoring, when connectivity to infrared cameras is vital.
