Business competition pressures manufacturers to produce faster, reduce expenses, and increase efficiencies. But all these requirements run into the quality control issue sooner or later — with the ...

Computer vision has been around for decades, but in recent years, this technology has been advancing by leaps and bounds. Computer vision is an application of artificial intelligence (AI) that's able ...

Smart Manufacturing relies on perfect quality control, yet many vital checks, like visual inspection of finished products, are still done manually. In high-volume production, this human-led process is ...

Over the last five years, we’ve seen a gradual increase in exposure to industrial computer vision applications. Improvements to the image quality, size and cost of simple cameras, along with ...

Computer vision has been slipping into industrial work little by little. It didn’t arrive with a big announcement. People just started noticing that some tasks were now handled by cameras instead of ...

Computer scientists have combined sophisticated computer vision algorithms and a brain-computer interface to find mines in sonar images of the ocean floor. The study shows that the new method speeds ...

Detecting macro-defects early in the wafer processing flow is vital for yield and process improvement, and it is driving innovations in both inspection techniques and wafer test map analysis. At the ...
