Artificial intelligence, machine learning, and deep learning are interrelated concepts involved with computer-based learning from vast amounts of data – and then making predictions based on that information. This article will show how these technologies can provide good alternatives to traditional image processing, and how software works to make this happen.
A smart sensor is simply a sensor that can communicate to provide real-time diagnostic data and adapt based on that data. The data can be used to optimize a system, reducing costly downtime and increasing quality.
It is impossible to overestimate the critical nature of keen and constant visual inspection in any production process. That’s why an advanced vision system is vital for any of today’s advanced production lines – as well as for “yesterday’s” older and more issue-prone lines.
As of the morning of April 14, the Association for Advancing Automation (A3) is officially one association and its new website is live at www.automate.org.
Vision Engineering Inc. donates 76,400 meals to Feeding America as a result of the Mantis Feeds America Campaign, in celebration of the 40 year anniversary of their US headquarters.
Alluxa’s optical filters, specially designed for the advanced fluorescence spectrometer on the Mars Perseverance Rover, landed safely on Mars on Feb. 18, 2021.
“There is no reason and no way that a human mind can keep up with an artificial intelligence machine by 2035,” predicted the techno-futurist philosopher Gray Scott. But the truth is more nuanced: automation will create as many opportunities for humans as it reduces. Here’s how manufacturers can greatly enhance their processes—and address the U.S.’s skills shortage.
With the introduction of augmented reality into assembly and inspection processes, cutting-edge industry 4.0 research is uncovering best practices to maximize quality.
