Software Interface
1. Welcome Page
After installing PickWiz, the first time you open PickWiz, you will enter the Welcome Page.
| Interface | Description |
|---|---|
| Software Information Bar | The upper left displays version information, and the lower left displays document links such as the Dexforce Documentation Center, solution introductions, software overview, and operation manuals. |
| Project Menu | Displays all available task Scenes, task types, and feature options. |
| Project Configuration | Enter the project name and project path when creating a new project. The default project name is “new project” + the project sequence number, and the default project path is C: |
The Welcome Page allows users to create a new Scene project, load a project from the disk, or load a project from the case library.
| Function | Description |
|---|---|
| Create Empty Project | Create a new Scene project. When you select a task Scene in Create Empty Project, a new project name is generated automatically, and the project path defaults to C:. |
| Create from Case Library | Project cases for different Target Objects in multiple different Scenes. You can download a project file containing historical data and vision solutions from the case library. |
| Load Project | Load an existing project from the disk. |
2. Main Interface
After creating a new project, you will enter the Main Interface.
| Module | Description |
|---|---|
| Menu Bar | Provides basic functions related to projects and tasks, including Menu, Camera, Robot, One-click Connectivity, Production Interface, and Statistics. |
| Visualization Window | The visualized result area displays 3D vision operation results in real time and includes functions such as Run, vision calculation configuration, and historical data. |
| Log Area | The log area is used to display log information in real time. You can view operation-related data information for easier debugging, and it includes functions such as clear and filter. |
| Status Bar | The status area is used to check in real time whether the Camera and Robot have been connected successfully. |
| Configuration Area | The task-related configuration area includes task information, Target Object, Tool, eye-hand calibration, Scene Object, ROI, and visual parameters. |
2.1 Menu Bar
The Menu Bar contains the basic functions related to project and task management, and includes functions such as Menu, Camera, Robot, One-click Connectivity, Statistics, and historical data.
- Menu
| Function | Description |
|---|---|
| Create Project | Go to the Welcome Page, where you can create an empty project, create a project from the case library, or load an existing project from the disk. |
| Load Project | Load an existing project file from the disk. |
| Open Project Folder | Open the storage path of the current project. |
| Add Task | Add a new task Scene. You need to select a Scene and set the task name on the Add Task page. |
| Copy Current Task | Copy the currently selected task. |
| Delete Current Task | Delete the currently selected task. |
| Export and Backup | Supports customized export of task configurations, historical data, and shadow mode data, and supports automatic backup of project configurations. |
| Calculate Repeat Positioning Accuracy | Calculates the consistency error of results when the vision recognition system recognizes the position of the same object multiple times. It can be used to troubleshoot the stability of vision system recognition. Influencing factors include Camera accuracy and vision recognition accuracy. |
| Point Cloud Template Creation | Includes four functions: standardized mesh files, Point Cloud template creation, key point creation, and Point Cloud alignment mesh. It supports two Point Cloud template creation methods: generating templates from meshes and generating templates from Camera images. |
| Set Display Background | You can set the Background color of the 3D Matching visualization window to make it easier to observe the Scene Point Cloud of the Target Object. |
| Automatically Start PickWiz on Startup | After it is enabled, PickWiz starts automatically when the computer starts. |
| Language | Switch the software language. Chinese and English are currently supported. After switching the language, a restart is required to activate the setting. |
| About PickWiz | View the product version information, including the PickWiz version number, release date, dongle validity period, and PickLight / RLIA / GLIA version numbers. |
