Vision Spectra Conference 2022: July 19 - 21

Jul 19, 2022 Discover new and evolving trends in machine vision. Join us July 19-21, 2022 at the Vision Spectra Conference!

This free virtual conference gathers the leading names and thinkers in the machine vision industry – all in one place. Hear from brilliant speakers and discover new, innovative companies that are transforming the industry. Tune in for the latest on inspection, vision-guided robotics, warehousing and logistics, and new advances in systems and components.

Globally recognized AI visionary Andrew Ng will deliver the first of three keynotes, focusing on the use of “good data” over “big data” to harness the power of deep learning with machine vision for quality inspection. Luca Verre, co-founder and CEO of neuromorphic vision systems developer Prophesee, will present on neuromorphic sensing. Richard Liu of Yole Developpement will offer a macro look at the machine vision market and isolate market demands and drivers as well as long- and short-term growth factors.
