Laerdal Medical is one of the world’s leading suppliers of models for teaching people how to do CPR, intubate a patient or even deliver a baby. To ensure that each bust is assembled correctly and shipped with the right auxiliary components, Laerdal engineers implemented Tulip Vision, a vision-based error-proofing system from Tulip Interfaces Inc.

Injection-molding operation uses cobot to automate assembly, dispensing, inspection and other tasks.

AI and 3D vision technologies ensure quality at BorgWarner assembly plant.

Kistler Instrument Corp. has introduced a new version of its maXYmos process monitoring system.

PHILADELPHIA—Engineers at Drexel University have developed a benchtop tool that enables automakers and suppliers to get a better look at the electrochemical and mechanical functions of EV batteries.

A flexible, adaptive gripper accommodates high-mix, low-volume production.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is currently the leading trend in machine vision. Every major machine vision software package incorporates AI as one of its tools, and even less common software options include AI features as well.

I've noticed that operators and inspection workers often realize upon first meeting collaborative robots (cobots) that they aren't replacements for human labor. Instead, cobots signal a shift from traditional automation in quality and inspection, providing distinct advantages over traditional robots.

We define machine learning and explain how it works within machine vision, with a focus on where machine learning can be effectively applied to enhance inspection reliability and capability.

Digital ecosystem provides systematic controls for work instructions, change management and data collection.
