New software for In-Sight vision sensors reportedly improves workflow, eases integration and speeds deployment of vision sensors on the factory floor:
 
In-Sight Explorer 3.1 features a Windows XP look and feel, and supports the use of industry-standard OPC communication tags.
In-Sight OPC Server makes it easy to exchange data with other OPC programs and systems including PLCs, distributed control systems (DCS) and distributed I/O networks.
In-Sight ActiveX Display Control allows users to integrate In-Sight images and display graphics into third-party HMI and SCADA packages.
