Abstract

See full text

Systems and methods trigger an image acquisition of an object using motion data communicated from a motion controller on a network, the motion controller coupled to a motion drive. Based upon motion data from the motion controller, a virtual axis application is used to plan the movement of a virtual axis for a motion cycle, the virtual axis allowing an acquisition trigger rate to be calculated to follow movement of the object caused by the motion drive. Based on the calculated acquisition trigger rate, an acquisition trigger signal is generated for triggering the image acquisition of the object.
