Common Vision Blox (CVB) is a software development kit (SDK) for machine vision applications, which can be used with all common programming languages like C/C++, .Net (C#, VB, F#) and Python and on several platforms (Windows 32/64 bit, Ubuntu 32/64bit on Intel and ARM CPUs).
CVB can be used for several machine vision applications as listed here:
| Image Acquisition | Image Processing | 3D |
| Network Interfaces and Streaming | 2D Object Recognition | Hyperspectral Imaging |
Besides the SDK Common Vision Blox also provides some auxiliary applications like e.g. the GenICamBrowser for easy image acquistion and the Teachbench, a training utility for pattern recognition.
Visit also the Common Vision Blox website .
The basic license contains all functionalities of the Image Manager as image acquistion, image and point cloud handling. If you are a using a camera from Stemmer Imaging, you already got the CameraSuite license for the Image Manager. Advanced functionalties for image processing will be provided with an additional license for the Foundation Package. If you a looking for a special application, you can get a license for a specific CVB tool.
