Datalogic Acquires Pekat Vision

Industrial automation company Datalogic has acquired Pekat Vision, a developer of proprietary machine learning and deep learning algorithms for applications in the supply chain and industrial automation markets. The all-cash transaction was made by Datalogic subsidiary Datalogic srl, which acquired the entire share capital of the Czech Republic-based company. The transaction is valued at approximately $17.6 million.

Pekat Vision’s software is hardware-agnostic and can be used on third-party devices and platforms. The company has developed proprietary algorithms that use machine learning and deep learning for the automation of processes in the manufacturing, transportation, and logistics sectors, with further potential for managing retail applications.

Glossary

machine vision: Machine vision, also known as computer vision or computer sight, refers to the technology that enables machines, typically computers, to interpret and understand visual information from the world, much like the human visual system. It involves the development and application of algorithms and systems that allow machines to acquire, process, analyze, and make decisions based on visual data. Key aspects of machine vision include: Image acquisition: Machine vision systems use various...
machine learning: Machine learning (ML) is a subset of artificial intelligence (AI) that focuses on the development of algorithms and statistical models that enable computers to improve their performance on a specific task through experience or training. Instead of being explicitly programmed to perform a task, a machine learning system learns from data and examples. The primary goal of machine learning is to develop models that can generalize patterns from data and make predictions or decisions without being...
deep learning: Deep learning is a subset of machine learning that involves the use of artificial neural networks to model and solve complex problems. The term "deep" in deep learning refers to the use of deep neural networks, which are neural networks with multiple layers (deep architectures). These networks, often called deep neural networks or deep neural architectures, have the ability to automatically learn hierarchical representations of data. Key concepts and components of deep learning include: ...
algorithm: A precisely defined series of steps that describes how a computer performs a task.
