FLIGHT™ SDK
The flight™ software development kit (SDK)
provides a software toolkit to create custom marking applications using rhothor™ laser deflection technology. With
a set of ActiveX components and an open source example showing the functionality,
the SDK offers a starter platform for integrators.
The built-in controller interface allows direct communication over USB
between the marking program and the rhothor™ deflection system providing motion control
without need for an external controller. Laser signals are generated by the deflection system itself.
The flight™ SDK allows to:
- build and customize the GUI
- import different bitmap files (BMP, JPG, GIF)
- import vector files (DXF)
- create different types of barcode
- create text objects using System fonts and Windows TrueType fonts
- position, rotate and align each object in the marking field
- create pens defining the vectoring process
- create material colors defining the laser control parameters
The SDK is compatible with Windows 2000/XP and can be used in every
software development environment supporting ActiveX technology. The SDK ships with
an open source Visual Basic project and a developer guide describing the SDK functionality.
Thanks to the flexible structure of the flight™ SDK, extensions with custom components are possible.
