Benedikt Karolus, COO of HD Vision Systems
HD Vision Systems was founded in 2017 and is now conducting a number of pilot projects with its Lumiscan camera
Algolux presented a research paper at CVPR 2020, describing an approach applying a stochastic optimisation method to the problem of optimal hardware-software co-design of cameras and computer vision algorithms
This paper will analyse the benefits and drawbacks of traditional image processing and deep learning. It aims to provide clarity on the subject of deep learning, which can then help data scientists and industries choose the most suitable method depending on the task.

Matthew Dale explores the power of computational imaging, all made possible by clever illumination
The impact of lidar in automotive has been replicated by the application of structured light approaches in machine and computer vision systems. The ultimate paradigm shift is restore vision to the blind. A discussion between photonics hardware, software and users is needed.
Zensors' algorithms analyse feeds from CCTV cameras to provide real-time data on the number of people in an area and whether safe distances are maintained between them
Takashi Someda, CTO at Hacarus, on the advantages of sparse modelling AI tools
Learn what kinds of inspection become possible with computational imaging. Includes a detailed overview of CI techniques used in machine vision and the components needed, and six application examples.
Limited data is a common problem when training CNNs in industrial imaging applications. Petra Thanner and Daniel Soukup, from the Austrian Institute of Technology, discuss ways of working with CNNs when data is scarce
Outfield analyses aerial images of orchards using machine learning to predict crop yield
Farmers are starting to reap the rewards of robotics and machine vision, as Keely Portway finds out
Open source software has advanced to a point where it’s now a credible option for industrial imaging, Matthew Dale finds
