Vision Builder for Automated Inspection
National Instruments Vision Builder for Automated Inspection (AI) is 
configurable machine vision software that you can use to prototype, 
benchmark, and deploy applications. NI Vision Builder AI does not require 
programming, but is scalable to LabVIEW RT.
Vision Builder AI allows you to easily configure and benchmark a 
sequence of visual inspection steps, as well as deploy the visual inspection 
system for automated inspection. With Vision Builder AI, you can perform 
powerful visual inspection tasks and make decisions based on the results of 
individual tasks. Additionally, you can communicate with external devices 
using an Ethernet connection, serial lines, and digital I/Os. With Vision 
Builder AI, you can migrate your configured inspection to LabVIEW, 
extending the capabilities of your applications if necessary.
LabVIEW RT with the Vision Development Module
The LabVIEW Real-Time Module and the RT Series hardware, such as the 
NI 1450, extend the capabilities of LabVIEW to address the need for 
deterministic real-time performance. 
The Real-Time Module combines LabVIEW graphical programming with 
the power of RT Series hardware, enabling you to build deterministic 
real-time systems. You develop VIs in LabVIEW and embed the VIs on 
RT targets. The RT target runs VIs without a user interface and offers a 
stable platform for real-time VIs.
For more information about LabVIEW RT, refer to the LabVIEW 
Real-Time Module User Manual
The Vision Development Module is an image acquisition, processing, and 
analysis library of more than 270 functions for grayscale, color, and binary 
image display, image processing, pattern matching, particle analysis, 
gauging, and measurement.
For unique image processing, you can use the Vision Development Module 
functions individually or in combination. The Vision Development Module 
allows you to acquire, display, manipulate, and store images as well as 
perform image analysis, processing, and interpretation. Using the Vision 
Development Module, imaging novices and experts can program the most 
basic or complicated image applications without knowledge of particular 
algorithm implementations.
