Cognex VisionPro Machine Vision Software - Cognex partners

Proven in more than 700,000 installations worldwide, the VisionPro tool library performs a wide range of functions from geometric object location and inspection to identification and measurement.

• Powerful vision tools (including PatMax^®, LineMax^™, OCRMax^™ and IDMax^®) perform accurate and repeatable inspections.
• With an extensive .NET class library and user controls, users can fully integrate VisionPro software into automation equipment.
• Cognex Designer and VisionPro QuickBuild™ let you configure acquisition, select and optimize vision tools and make pass/fail decision without programming.
• Fully compatible with latest Windows^® environments and supports Microsoft 64-bit operating systems to meet the demands of larger cameras and greater pixel depth.
• Supports a broad range of Cognex Industrial Cameras and most 3rd party cameras through the Cognex Acquisition Alliance program.

VisionPro software are provided together when you order the Cognex USB Dongle, 8704e GigE cameras interface card, CC24 IO, and VC5 vision controller.

Compatible with Microsoft^® Windows^® 7, Windows^® 8, and Windows^® 10 (64bit only) in five languages.

VisionPro Vision Software Vision Tools

Beginning with the introduction of Cognex Designer software, Cognex Designer automatically includes the latest VisionPro software and capabilities. This enables users to take advantage of the graphical capabilities of Cognex Designer with the well-known and respected vision tools of VisionPro software, including PatMax®, IDMax®, and OCRMax®, and PatMax® AutoTune (introduced with Cognex Designer 2.0).

Advanced computer vision technology

VisionPro^® and Cognex Vision Library (CVL^®) Power Tools have the intelligence to ignore non-critical variations in appearance while focusing on the critical features that determine a product’s acceptability. Power Tools do not require extensive image preprocessing to achieve the final solution, adding faster application development for the vision engineer and lower lifecycle costs for the company.

Geometric pattern matching and inspection

The patented PatMax^® algorithm is the industry’s gold standard for part and feature location, providing accuracy and repeatability under the most challenging conditions.
