In the machine vision marketplace the term “AI” typically refers to deep learning platforms that enable industrial automation and inspection. To appreciate the value proposition of AI in this context, it’s helpful to understand how the technology has evolved over the past several decades.

It is crucial to hit the right color tone in the production process and to produce it homogeneously across numerous batches. Color not only leaves an impression of quality, but can also be used as an indirect variable to control the process.

How you can identify opportunities for AI in your machine vision applications.

Machine vision system developers must consider data bandwidth, cable length, and other factors when choosing a camera interface.

Robots are being added in locations that add value so companies can use human employees in higher value areas and tasks still beyond the scope of machines.

It is beneficial to look to the experience of industry experts who have already taken many steps to provide a combination of AI and computer vision solutions.

There are four common reasons why manufacturers should use smart vision acceleration.

Unlike standard vision industrial cameras, AI or inference cameras belong to the device class of “embedded vision systems.” This presents manufacturers with completely new challenges.

Machine vision enables new and exciting advancements in industries and fields of research across multiple disciplines. 

Deep learning is now more user-friendly and practical than ever and together with other vision technologies opens up new application areas, making the inclusion of vision inspection as part of Industry 4.0 even more beneficial.
