Ask your questions - Camera Locate URCaps (tips and troubleshooting)

Olivier_Grenier

Hi everyone,

Here are questions we were asked during the vision system training about the presentation on camera locate URCaps (tips and troubleshooting)

Feel free to ask other ones you may have in mind!

Are there plans to add a way to attach a polarizing filter (or other filters) to the camera lens?

Cody_James

Is there any thought to adding a MoveJ command into the camera locate function, and then selecting the appropriate snapshot position for the robot to move to? This would avoid the need to add that waypoint prior to the camera locate function.

It would probably be easy to add, but you'd lose flexibility if you had a large program and/or multiple camera nodes and snapshot positions.

@Cody_James - The only issue I see with this is that the code within the "Camera Locate" function only runs if a part is found by the camera.  Maybe it could add a MoveJ above the Camera Locate function when you add it to the program?
