Expert systems can simplify programming of complex inspection tasks.

Mike Kelley and Sarah Gelberg, JAI Pulnix Inc.

Although machine vision technology that can solve simple problems has long been available, no machine vision system, until recently, could match a human’s ability to handle highly complex tasks that require sophisticated judgment — at least not at an affordable cost. However, as neural networks are gaining in sophistication, parallel developments in smart cameras are making this technology a feasible option in industrial inspection tasks, such as sorting wood by grain or knots, produce by size or ripeness, or metal by surface finish. Most modern machine vision systems use complex...Read full article
