Abstract

A machine vision sensor is provided that includes a processor (42); a camera for capturing images (43); and a display for displaying captured images to be analzyed (41), and for displaying a spreadsheet for analyzing the image (46). The spreadsheet is displayed in semi-transparent relationship with the image. A hand-held control pad (44) can be used as the sole input and control device for accessing a plurality of menus having various vision tools. The spreadsheet provides an easy-to-use environment and user interface for programming machine vision applications. The hand-held control pad can be used to navigate over the spreadsheet, thereby selecting cells of the spreadsheet (46). When a particular cell of the spreadsheet is selected, a change occurs in the appearance of the image displayed (47). The spreadsheet can be used to create a user interface for controlling analysis of the captured image.
