|---|---|
| New empty project | Create a new Scene project and select TaskScene in the new empty project. A new project name will be automatically generated. The default project path is C:. |
| Create | from the case libraryMultiple project cases for different Targets in different Scenes. You can download a project file containing historical data and visual plans from the case library. |
| Load project | loads an existing project in 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, tasks, etc., as well as functions including menu, camera, robot, one-click connection, production interface, statistics, etc. |
| Visualization window | The visualization result area displays 3D vision running results in real time and provides functions such as run, vision computing configuration, and historical data. |

2.1 menu bar
The menu bar contains basic functions related to project and task management, as well as functions such as menu, Camera, Robot, one-click connection, statistics, and historical data.
- menu
| Function | Description |
|---|---|
| New project | jumps to the welcome page, where you can create a new empty project, create a new project from the case library, or load an existing project on the disk. |
| Load project | already has a project file in the loading disk. |
| Open the project folder | opens the current project storage path. |
| New Task | adds a new TaskScene. You need to select the Scene and set the Task name on the new Task page. |
| Copy the current Task | copies the currently selected Task. |
| Delete the current Task | Deletes the currently selected Task. |
| Export and Backup | supports custom export of Task configuration, historical data, shadow mode data, and supports automatic backup of project configuration |
| Calculate repeat positioning accuracy | visual recognition system calculates the consistency error of the results when the same object position is recognized multiple times. It can be used to check the stability of visual system recognition. The influencing factors include Camera accuracy, visual recognition accuracy, etc. |
| Point Cloud template production | includes four functions: standardized grid file, Point Cloud template production, key point production, and Point Cloud aligned grid. It supports two Point Cloud template production methods: grid generation template and Camera image generation template. |
| Set display background | can set the background color of the 3D matching visualization window to facilitate observation of Target's ScenePoint Cloud. |
| Automatically starts PickWiz | when you turn on the computer Afteris turned on, PickWiz | will automatically start when the computer is turned on.
| Language | switches the software language, currently supports Chinese and English bilingual; after switching the language, you need to restart to activate the settings. |
