Audible deviations

Hello all,
I know this is an odd question, but has anyone come across a script
that would use perhaps a .wav file to audibly convey the deviations
of vector points in real time when running the cmm program.
It would come in handy for me in a few instances. (Not being able to see the
monitor would be one instance.)
Or maybe an idea of how to start to tackle a script of this sort.,
Any comments would be appreciated.

Thanks
  • This is something that could be easily implemented using PC-Dmis Automation. I just recently posted an example of a PC-Dmis Automation application that uses PC--Dmis events to capture each time a Dimension statement is completed, The measurement data results is extracted from the statement and sent back to the Automation application dynamically during the measurement process. In this application you would only need to take the vector "T" result and construct the phrase and pass it to a speech module.

    As an alternative to the above, at the place where I worked, we had mold surfaces to inspect and dimension using vector points. In this case, the application I created presented a screen of the part drawing with a blue dot at each vector measurement point location on the mold surfaces. As the measurement proceeded the blue dot would change to a green or red dot representing a pass or fail. Clicking on the dot would cause a pop-up with the measurement values.
  • The thought occurred to to me, How hard could it be to add voice. So I added voice to declare each measurement as it happens, as pass or fail to the existing Pcdmis Clock application.
    The pre-compiled program is PcdmisClock Compiled v2.1-0 and the VB project files are in PcdmisClock Project v2.1-0.
