When automated optical inspection (AOI) works, it is almost always preferable to human visual inspection. It can be faster, more accurate, more consistent, less expensive, and it never gets tired.

The SA1E-X models of photoelectric sensors feature advanced optic function for transparent or translucent object detection, with optimum response speed of 500μs said to be one of the fastest on the ...

In brief: Thanks to machine learning, object detection has come a long way in recent years, but most models still perform best on low-resolution video images. Now, researchers at Carnegie Mellon ...

Fast object detection is no longer confined to the smiling trivialities of digital cameras. It's about to make the roads a lot safer for driving, thanks to a breakthrough in image processing from NEC.
