Sightech Vision Systems Unveils Latest Version

Of Industry's Only Self-Learning Machine Vision Systems

PC-Eyebot’s new features include more connectivity, statistical reporting, barcode- reading capabilities and graphs generated from multiple inspection locations.

San Jose, California, May 17, 2005 – Sightech Vision Systems, manufacturer of the Eyebot family of machine vision inspection products that do not require any programming because of self-learning technology, will demonstrate the new features in the latest version of PC-Eyebot in Booth 406 at Vision Show West 2005 in San Jose, May 17 -19.

PC-Eyebot is Sightech's next generation Machine Vision System that runs on a small industrial size PC form factor. Using an enhanced and improved version of the patented machine vision algorithms in standard Eyebot technology, PC-Eyebot is more powerful than previous versions, sensitive to even smaller defects, including colors and textures, and has more features and vision parameter settings. PC-Eyebot also boasts many new features that aid in integration, such as LAN-based production statistics reporting, and make it possible for multiple PC-Eyebots to report to one PC to generate statistical report graphs.

PC-Eyebot works by using a massive feature-based protocol that processes up to 12 million features per second in order to perform high-quality inspections. As a result, it can train on good parts or products or easily identify the absence or presence of parts or products in a matter of seconds for manufacturing applications including bio-med, automotive, labeling, packaging, surgical tools and other products.

"Only Sightech's patented Neuro-RAM algorithm learns to inspect products just by looking at them. The latest version of PC-Eyebot is able to identify many more problems that are impossible for competitor's systems to identify and delivers significant reporting advantages, " said Art Gaffin, CEO, CTO of Sightech.

PC-Eyebot uses standard commercial technologies to offer extensive connectivity and integration with external systems, including LAN, USB, Firewire/1394, Serial LPT and a wide variety of camera types.

Customers with complex vision application needs or who must use standard hardware or PC technologies for maintenance and support purposes will also benefit from PC-Eyebot's other enhancements, such as:

•Expandable memory

•Three level decisions:  good, bad, marginal

•External relay inputs or Digital I/O

•

•More flexible area and regional definition and settings
