New Release – Scorpion 10.2.1.559

Thor

We are proud to announce another update for Scorpion Vision Software version X – 10.2.1 build 559.

This version features significant toolbox improvements with the new CircleFinder2D as a highlight. This state-of-the-art tool is a vast improvement of legacy RadialArcFinder tool as is ideal for 3D Stereo Vision application where the best accuracy is needed. The user can specify a custom cost function to optimize the ransac selection of the best circle even in noisy enviroments.

New cost-function lets user specify optimal search to locate circle
CircleFinder2D – New cost-function lets user specify optimal search to locate circle
