Once a system is accelerated, an SDK application can interface to the accelerator application the same
way as is possible with a physical sensor, although the IP of the accelerating PC must be used for the
connection.
System Requirements
The following are the system requirements for the software:
l
Processor: Intel Core i3 or equivalent (32- or 64-bit)
l
RAM: 4 GB
l
Hard drive: 500 GB
l
Operating system: Windows 7, 8, or 10 (32- or 64-bit)
Benefits
Accelerated sensors provide several benefits.
Acceleration is completely transparent: because the output protocols of an accelerated sensor are
identical to those of an unaccelerated sensor, SDK and PLC applications require no changes whatsoever
for controlling accelerated sensors and receiving health information and data.
Measurement latency is reduced on accelerated sensors, which results in shorter cycle times. This means
a sensor can scan more targets in a given time period.
The memory of accelerated sensors is limited only by the memory of the PC on which the Accelerator is
running. Accelerated sensors can therefore handle large 3D point clouds more effectively.
Installation
