In addition, because BridgeVIEW is easily integrated with the company's machine vision and motion control software and hardware, top manufacturers are using it today in production line, process control, pilot plant, remote monitoring, and HMI/SCADA applications. The new version of BridgeVIEW delivers many powerful application development technologies, including:
- •
Multithreading.
- •
Full OPC client support.
- •
ActiveX container.
- •
BridgeViEW automation and TCP/IP server.
- •
Distributed computing tools.
- •
Translation and documentation tools.
