Vision coordinates to touch probe

I heard it was possible to capture the center coordinates of a feature and feed them to the touch probe.

Example:

I'm looking down on a cube, the camera captured the edges and determined the center.
Now I want my touch probe to locate the cube using the coordinates captured by the camera to go and measure the z height.

I heard it was possible but was never shown how.

Thanks

You can capture an approximate Z height with the top or ring light. Create an alignment with the Z-axis to that point, then the X-Y location based on the edges. Go grab your probe and the probe should easily locate the Z based on the alignment.
