We would like to use Vision Builder for AI to do the visual inspection of our products. Due to the large size of the object, we might need multiple cameras
to do this. Is it possible to use information from multiple cameras in Vision Builder or do I have to use multiple Vision Builders at the same time? Are there
any other solutions?
Kind regard

Vision Builder AI can definitely handle acquiring from multiple cameras. If you trigger the cameras, the software can even process images that were acquired at the same time (although the processing steps are sequential, the image returned by the acquisition step can be synchronized with other acq steps if this is needed for your app).
The software includes templates to illustrate different multiple camera architectures (see the New Inspection from Template option under New Inspection when creating a new inspection from the splash screen), and here are some dev zone documents that might also be helpful:

Hope this helps,
