Artificial intelligence (AI) visual inspection systems are automated, intelligent solutions that leverage AI and computer vision to identify defects or anomalies in products or processes, reducing dependence on manual inspection. Their primary objective is to enhance quality control and production efficiency by enabling real-time defect detection, improving accuracy, minimizing human error, and ensuring consistent product quality.
The key types of AI visual inspection systems include deep learning models, pre-trained models, and others. Deep learning models replicate the neural networks of the human brain to process data and recognize patterns. Trained on extensive datasets, these models can detect intricate features in images, making them highly effective for identifying defects or anomalies in visual inspection tasks. The main components of AI visual inspection systems consist of software and services, with applications spanning various industries, including industrial manufacturing, medical treatment, semiconductors, rail transit, and more.
