Design & Web-Deploy Industrial Visualization Clients to PCs and Industrial Displays
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.
“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.”

Securely display, analyze, and manage what's happening in your facility right now — Ignition makes it easy through the combination of real-time status and control functionality, SQL database integration, the Vision Module's powerful graphical capabilities and solid security support.
With the Ignition Vision Module, you can launch an unlimited number of rich runtime clients to as many HMIs, industrial panels, PCs, and laptops as you need.
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.

Display real-time and historical data on customizable charts, tables, and graphs. Quickly set up dashboards, track key performance indicators (KPIs), and view trends. Use with the Alarm Notification Module to quickly set up real-time alarming screens.
The included Ignition Designer is packed with tools that make development quick and intuitive. Use drag-and-drop to easily and instantly bind data to inputs, displays, tables, and other components. Cut down on development hours with time-saving component templates.
Vision gives you many ways to bring your process to life with powerful graphics and animation tools. Import any SVG file, choose from nearly 4,000 ready-made images available with the Symbol Factory Module, or draw your own vector graphics. Easily create animations by binding shape properties to data values.

Achieve advanced functionality using the built-in Python scripting engine. The Python scripting language is well-supported, powerful, and easy to learn and read, so your projects are easy to maintain.
With Ignition 8.1, the Vision Module supports industry-leading encryption protocols, and supports modern, web-based authentication strategies such as federated identity, multi-factor authentication (MFA), and single sign-on (SSO). Its new permissions model enables role-based security for complete system protection.
The Ignition Vision Module is perfect for plant-floor, standalone HMIs, and desktop screens. It’s fast, reliable and proven, after more than 10 years of plant-floor use and countless installations around the world.
With Ignition 8.1, the Vision Module is getting long-term support, which means it will be supported with new fixes and improvements for five years after the release of Ignition 8.1.
Ignition has two visualization modules: Vision and Perspective. Vision has been around for years and is in extensive use in just about every industry. Perspective is Ignition's newest visualization module. It leverages HTML5 to allow users to build mobile-responsive industrial applications that run natively on any screen. While both Vision and Perspective support desktops, HMIs, and control room displays, Perspective also offers visualization and control on any mobile device.
“My favorite thing with Vision is the vector graphics, being able to draw paths and being able to use that to create really clean graphics.”
