Interacting with Blocks

Basic Blocks

Here is the brief example of how to use the Cognex Deep Learning Studio Runtime Workspace with Designer. These blocks can be added using the Toolbox on the right side.

• Camera_Acquire: You can add sample image. You can choose file or directory here.
• Deep Learning Runtime Block: Please double click the block and you can choose the runtime workspace that you want to use.

• ScriptBlock: Using this, you can create custom scripts to interact with the data and tools in the project. You can get the “position” with this script below as an example.
