Screph program modes

The mode defines the available markup types, subject-specific tools, and rules for applying computer vision results.

Available modes

ModeStatusPurpose
GeneralImplementedFree-form annotation and general computer vision operations.
GUI AutomationImplementedDescription of application screens and data preparation for a separate automation scenario.
Industrial VisionExperimentalInspection and measurements using domain-specific annotation types.
Autonomous Unmanned VehiclesExperimentalAnalysis of frames and series of frames with areas, changes and trajectories.

Available modes

Practice example. Changes apply only here and reset when you leave the example.

General

Suitable for tasks without a special subject profile. Elements, features, regions of interest, relationships, annotations, general computer vision methods, sequences, and method graphs are available.

GUI Automation

For buttons, fields, panels, text, and other interface elements. The project stores visual features and conditions that a separately prepared script can use.

Selecting a mode does not trigger clicks and input. Execution begins only with a separate command in Automation Runtime.

Industrial Vision

Domain-specific inspection and measurement tasks, operation-result review and confirmed changes to supported annotations are available. A complete production workflow for verification, export and equipment control is not yet available.

The built-in save target is Screph Industrial CV (OpenCV / NumPy).

Autonomous Unmanned Vehicles

Frames and series of frames, running methods, viewing results and confirmed markup changes are available. The mode does not control flight, mission or autopilot and does not replace GIS.

The built-in save target is Screph UAV CV (OpenCV / NumPy).

Switching mode

  1. Save the current project.
  2. Open general settings or mode list in Selector.
  3. Select a mode and check its name, available data types, and tools before you begin.

The Select, Create, Move, and Resize tools operate within the selected mode and do not switch program modes.

Modes, catalogs, and active operations

General combines compatible catalogs. GUI Automation and Industrial support classification, detection, and instance segmentation in Learning; UAV supports detection and segmentation. Model recommendations differ. Ground Robotics remains deferred: a complete robotics workflow is not provided.

Selected parameters and models are retained when switching modes. If a selection is unavailable in the new mode, a reason is shown instead of silently replacing it. History, saved-result viewing, and stopping work retain their own availability rules.

Training, ML-environment preparation, dataset jobs, calibration calculation or auto collection, and unfinished canvas actions can block a mode switch. Finish or stop the indicated work first. A switching error must not enable new changes; the message identifies the recovery reason.

Simple / Advanced in Learning changes the density of the same panel. One operation / Chain / Graph determines workflow construction, while grayscale changes viewing. These settings do not switch the program mode or create a separate dataset.
