Vision Module

Visualization for Industrial Plant Floors & Control Rooms

See and Control Your Process in Real Time

Free your operators from manually tracking process data on whiteboards and clipboards by creating dynamic, beautiful, real-time dashboards and control screens with the Ignition Vision Module. Use the Vision Module to quickly build any type of visualization for your industrial organization: HMI, historical trending, and alarming screens, plus charts, graphs, and much more.

Module Data Sheet

“Reporting, graphs, charts, all the brewing information, information from the lab, even tracking the trucks coming in and out of the yard, we see it all in real time using Ignition.”

Using Vision and
Perspective Together

Ignition Vision is perfect for dedicated plant-floor displays and HMIs, while Ignition Perspective is perfect for mobile-first industrial applications. You can use them on their own or together to form the industry’s most powerful, cutting-edge visualization system.

Easily Interface with PLCs and Databases

With Ignition, you can easily connect to any major type of PLC or database and integrate that data into your SCADA system. With powerful, easy-to-use property binding capabilities, the Vision Module lets you create applications that display database information to any screen and write data directly to any database.
