Since the vision assistant is made by NI, wouldn't that be the logical place to look?

Anyway, I think it's part of the vision module, so you probably won't find it for download. You might get an evaluation version, though. You should talk to your local NI representative.

I think what you're looking for is actually called NI Vision Builder AI, and yes, it is a commercial product of NI's - you've got to pay for it.

As an aside - for those out there that are into vision, the NI Vision Builder AI has certainly matured since the last time I saw it - we're currently using it on a visual inspection project and it is quite fully functional for process-type work. Rumour has it that version 3 is due out sometime soon and it'll be even better - well worth a look.

and yes, it is rather pricey, not for casual playing around, although well worth the price if you have a serious project to work on.

and *that* is really saying something in crelf's case:

Image Aquisition with LabVIEW :worship:

Speaking of that, and new features and API, etc, etc, ...

any chance that there might be a new, updated version on the horizon? :thumbup:

Thanks for your kind words Mike There is a lot of opportunity to expand my book, and yes, it's getting a bit long in the tooth (Vision 6.1), but I'm not planning a new version just yet for a couple of reasons:

• There's still a lot of very useful information in the current version
  
• I've got several other projects on the boil that are demanding a lot of my time
  
• There's a bunch of exciting things going on at V I Engineering - it's a great place to work and I'm heavily (and happily) absorbed there for the moment
  

Now, if only I could squeeze a few more hours out of each day I think a 30 hour day would just-about satisfy me...
