Other sensors can be integrated via IO-Link, for example for distance and height meas‐
uring purposes.
Fieldbus and Ethernet interfaces with OPC-UA and MQTT provide data preprocessed in
“dual talk” (edge computing) for the controller and for cloud computing. In addition, the
SIM can be integrated into a SICK CAN sensor network.
Thanks to the high-performance multi-core processor with a fast FPGA coprocessor as
well as a highly synchronous FPGA I/O, the SIM2500 can be used for image (pre)proc‐
essing and handling of input and output signals in real time. The integrated HALCON
image processing library, plus the open SICK AppSpace software platform, make it
possible to develop customized application programs for even the most demanding 2D
and 3D machine vision applications.
The HMI and data visualization features can be provided on any browser-enabled
notebook, PC, or tablet. The app is created using the SICK AppStudio SDKs and - when
using HALCON - using HDevelop from MVTec.
