EasyMatrixCode

Open eVision Studio is the evaluation, prototyping and development tool of Open eVision. Its intuitive graphical user interface allows you to call and immediately see the result of any of eVision's functions. A scripting function generates the corresponding code, which can then be copied and pasted into your application. Open eVision Studio is free (when using Open eVision 2.0 and above) and can be downloaded to evaluate the performance of Open eVision.

EasyMatrixCode can be used in the most demanding situation. It has been designed to fulfill the most difficult application cases such as:

• Bad illumination conditions: non-uniform contrast, under- or over-exposed images
• Bad images resulting from printing or optical defects: blurred Data Matrix codes, anisotropic and non-uniform scaling, noisy images, skewed images
• Hard-to-detect codes: small-size codes, codes on a textured background, resulting from dot peening, laser marking, ink jet printing or electro-chemical etching on various materials.

Data Matrix codes are widely used for parcel tracking and part identification in the semiconductor, pharmaceutical and mechanical industries. EasyMatrixCode is a fully automatic reader of 2D Data Matrix codes. It recognizes symbols of any size, contrast, location and orientation in a single operation. Error detection and correction algorithms are used to provide a reliable reading. EasyMatrixCode is fully compatible with the ANSI/AIM BC11-1997 standard.

EasyMatrixCode inspects the quality of the data matrix code and computes the indicators as defined by the ANSI/AIM, ISO/IEC 15415, ISO/IEC TR 29158 and SEMI T10-0701 standards.

As an automatic library, a learning phase is not required, but it is optional. Some characteristics of the matrix code may be set manually in order to restrict the search and accelerate the process. These characteristics are: the family of the matrix code, the number of cells, the cells color, whether flipping is allowed or not.

• Open eVision Dongle-based Licenses: Dongle-based Licenses offer the flexibility to be transferred from a PC to another. To purchase a Dongle-based License, select one of the Euresys dongles (USB or Parallel) plus the license(s) to be stored on this dongle. Licenses are delivered as activation codes, which are stored on the dongles.
• Open eVision Software-based Licenses: Software-based licenses do not require any dongle, they are linked to the PC on which they have been activated. Licenses are delivered as activation codes and can be managed online.
