Dietrich Hofmann, Gerhard Linß, Olaf Kuehn · 2009
Abstract � The main purpose of the paper is to present the new convenient, reliable and affordable possibilities of the Internet to use software as a service for the solution of complex measurement problems in quality control. The focal point is directed on innovative vision sensor systems for fast, contactless and non-destructive measurements of dimensions and colours. For these systems new developed intuitive see & click programming instructions will be introduced and explained. During the oral presentation of the paper a hands-on application of vision sensors for quality inspections with software as a service (SaaS) will be demonstrated.
