Integration of IDS NXT Experience Kit in factory automation
This video explains how to integrate IDS NXT ocean into factory automation environments and use AI-based image processing directly on the shop floor. You will learn how IDS NXT cameras perform onboard inference, how to configure them using the IDS NXT cockpit, and how to transfer results reliably to PLCs (Programmable Logic Controller) and machines.
The session covers practical integration workflows using I/Os (Input/Output), RS‑232 and the IDS NXT REST API (Application Programming Interface). You’ll see live demonstrations of camera setup, inference triggering, communication handling, and parameter control – showing how IDS NXT enables autonomous machine vision without a connected PC. This guide is ideal for anyone looking to implement AI-powered automation quickly and efficiently.
