IDS peak Cockpit: Overlays and measurement tools
Discover how to use overlay and measurement tools in peak Cockpit to annotate images, provide visual guidance and perform basic measurements without writing any code. This video shows how to add graphical and text overlays, customise their appearance and save them for future use.
You will also learn how to calibrate images for real-world measurements, display dynamic camera metadata and understand the practical limitations of image-based measurement. Ideal for image annotation, inspection workflows and lightweight machine vision applications, these tools help users analyse and document images quickly and efficiently.
Topics covered
- Using graphical overlays for image annotation and visual guidance
- Creating and managing text overlays for documentation and record keeping
- Saving overlays within images and workspaces
- Customising overlay colours, styles and drawing options
- Calibrating images for measurements in real-world units
- Understanding measurement accuracy and application limitations
Who should watch
