Optic vision system & PLC communication

Hello :)

Me and some friends are building a quality-ensuring test machine for nozzles as our bachelor thesis and require some help regarding Lattepanda.

The whole machine will be controlled by a PLC, but the PLC can not determine the nozzle's spray angle. This is where we plan to use a Lattepanda 64GB with Windows 10. By the use of optical vision and an automatic image processing program in Labview/Matlab we believe this can be a solution to our problem.

How well can the Lattepanda communicate with the PLC?
Is it difficult to program?
I assume it will be C++?

We do not have any experience with Lattepanda and wonder which and what ammount of parts we need outside of the Lattepanda itself to make this work.

Please let me know if there is any questions ;)
