Introduction
BOA vision system is the hardware platform. Sherlock Embedded is the powerful and
flexible professional machine vision software. Together they are the BOA Pro.
BOA Pro is a fully integrated vision system in a compact “smart” camera format that has
been specifically designed for industrial use. Packaged complete with application
software embedded, BOA Pro provides power and flexibility for automated inspection
for the factory floor.
BOA Pro vision systems are configured and monitored remotely using an Ethernet
connection to a PC or factory network. An inspection can be quickly setup using the
Sherlock Embedded Client Software application to access the programming interface.
The software interface is fully equipped with a suite of image processing tools and
capabilities that satisfy a range of needs.
BOA vision systems are small, rugged devices that can be easily integrated into existing
production lines, machinery or moving equipment. They are supported by standard
industrial M12 cordsets to further simplify and reduce implementation costs. Rated for
IP67 deployment when fitted with a compatible lens cover, BOA systems can be
mounted in wash down factory environments without the need for additional protective
enclosures.
