ENCRYPTION AUTHENTICATION OF DATA TRANSMITTED FROM MACHINE VISION TOOLS
First Claim
1. A computerized method for securely transmitting data using a machine vision system, comprising:
- A) establishing a communications link between a machine vision processor and a remote digital data processor;
B) encrypting, on the machine vision processor, (i) at least one network packet containing machine vision data, and (ii) at least one network packet containing non-machine vision data; and
C) sending to the remote digital data processor the encrypted network packets from the machine vision processor.

Abstract
The technology provides, in some aspects, methods and systems for securely transmitting data using a machine vision system (e.g., within a pharmaceutical facility). Thus, for example, in one aspect, the technology provides a method that includes the steps of establishing a communications link between a machine vision processor and a remote digital data processor (e.g., a database server, personal computer, etc.); encrypting, on the machine vision processor, (i) at least one network packet containing machine vision data, and (ii) at least one network packet containing non-machine vision data; and sending to the remote digital data processor the encrypted network packets from the machine vision processor.
