Digital Spot-It comes with two software applications that need to
be installed on a Windows XP/2000/NT/98 computer which will
be used for configuring Digital Spot-It.
Digital Spot-It Explorer
The Digital Spot-It Explorer is used to connect with one or more of the Digital Spot-It units
connected to the network and configure and test the peripherals on each of
the units.

Soliton Vision Artist (SVA)
Click the image to view enlarge
The Soliton Vision Artist (SVA) allows the user to develop and program the
image processing script into Digital Spot-It. The main modules in the script are:
- Image Acquisition
- Initiating the actions like camera initialization and acquisition
upon occurrence of a trigger
- Image Processing
- The sequence of image processing steps in order to determine the
pass / fail result
- Typically included as Interrupt Service Routines
- Control Actions
- Turning on the appropriate DO lines based on the pass/ fail result
The SVA is an interactive application where the various image processing
algorithms can be applied to the images acquired from Digital Spot-It and tested
it to make sure that the script produces the right results for each of the
test images.
