A subfield of artificial intelligence (AI), machine vision is advancing quickly and has the capacity to revolutionise many industries worldwide. Since it heavily relies on visual processing, it is no ...

One of the simplest ways to understand a machine vision system is to consider it the “eyes” of a machine. The system uses digital input that’s captured by a camera to determine action. Businesses use ...

We salute hackers who make technology useful for people in emerging markets. Leigh Johnson joined that select group when she accepted the challenge to build portable machine vision units that work ...

Machine vision and embedded vision systems both fulfill important roles in industry, especially in process control and automation. The difference between the two lies primarily in image processing ...

Although machine vision may seem like a new concept, we can trace its origins to the 1960s. Back then, machine vision existed as raw image files. A paradigm shift happened with the advent of digital ...

Machine vision systems are a staple in production lines for barcode reading, quality control and inventory management. And, as the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) continues to expand its reach, ...

We are living in an age of turbocharged commerce and next-level consumer expectations. Customers will not hesitate to return a product that has a scratch or a food item past its expiration date.

Advances in additive manufacturing, also known as 3D printing, have generated increasingly powerful capabilities for producing geometrically complex structures that could not be made using ...

EZ Eye's algorithmic technology reduces manual image grading by 97% while maintaining 96% accuracy for automated quality ...

Deep convolutional neural networks have taken the world of artificial intelligence by storm. These machines now routinely outperform humans in tasks ranging from face and object recognition to playing ...
