# Integrations

Connect your Captic system to your PLC, robot or software.

There are two ways to integrate a Captic system:

* [**Integration Flow**](/docs/overview/hands-on/integrating-your-robot/integration-flow.md) connects the system to your line: robots, PLCs, sensors and other systems. You build the integration in your browser at `http://[serial-number].local:1880` by wiring nodes together; no application code is needed.
* [**REST**](/docs/overview/hands-on/integrating-your-robot/rest.md) lets your own software call the vision system directly over the Product API.

Robotic products such as the **Bag Depalletizer** can connect to a robot directly or through a PLC. Inspection products such as **Seam Inspection** send their results to a PLC.
