In modern industrial automation, the synergy between machine vision, motion control, and human–machine interaction (HMI) defines the core competitiveness of any intelligent equipment. Achieving high precision, high speed, and high stability often depends on how seamlessly these three domains connect.
Vstrongtech’s latest ACRN-based Vision–Motion–HMI Integrated Solution takes this challenge head-on. Built around our dynamic “Black Warrior Demo,” this solution brings together real-time control, hybrid OS virtualization, and high-performance vision processing—allowing equipment manufacturers to simplify architecture while dramatically improving efficiency and capability.
This integrated edge-computing platform is especially suitable for single-machine automation equipment within 32 axes, including:
-
Dispensing machines
-
Laser cutting systems
-
Semiconductor bonding machines
-
Wafer dicing systems
-
Precision CNC applications
-
Customized AOI and automated inspection devices
Dual-System Architecture: Real-Time Control Meets General-Purpose Computing
The power of the solution comes from the fusion of two key software stacks:
1. Vstrongtech_Linux_Suit – Real-Time Control OS
Designed on x86 architecture, our real-time Linux environment offers deterministic performance essential for precision motion control:
-
Dedicated CPU core allocation
-
Isolated system resources
-
Timer cycle 250 μs, jitter < 20 μs
-
Stable for microsecond-level applications such as motion control & machine vision
This ensures the controller responds at predictable intervals—vital for semiconductor equipment, laser processing, and multi-axis synchronous motion tasks.
2. Vstrongtech_Virtualization_Suit – Hybrid OS, One Hardware, Multiple Systems
Using a Type-1 Hypervisor (ACRN), Vstrongtech enables Linux (with Xenomai patch) and Windows 10 to run simultaneously on a single hardware platform.
This means equipment manufacturers can:
-
Run real-time motion control in Linux
-
Run UI, display, industrial software, or customer apps on Windows
-
Maintain full compatibility with C, C++, C#, and other programming languages
-
Keep their familiar Windows workflow while achieving microsecond-level control accuracy
Developer-Friendly & Industrial-Grade Features
-
Compatible with EtherCAT
-
Supports self-developed motion libraries
-
Directly drives ≤ 32-axis stepper/servo motors
-
Open programming environment for user-defined workflows
This dramatically reduces integration complexity and shortens development cycles.
Live Demo: “Black Warrior” Dynamic Vision–Motion–HMI System
Our on-site “Black Warrior” demo brings the entire architecture into a vivid, real industrial scenario.
✔ Vision Module
Provides high-precision recognition and positioning, acting as the “eyes” of the equipment.
✔ Motion Control Module
Drives motors through EtherCAT for high-speed and high-accuracy operation based on our independent motion library.
✔ Display / HMI Module
A Windows-based UI provides intuitive operation, visualization, and real-time task monitoring.
The three modules work together as a tightly coupled system, enabling a faster, smarter closed loop of:
Perception → Decision → Execution
This accelerates cycle times, enhances accuracy, and improves production efficiency—making it easier for machine builders to upgrade their equipment to an intelligent generation.
