Intelligent Inspection

Overview

2D machine vision solution powered by deep learning

The deep learning-powered Intelligent Inspection toolset from SICK enables powerful anomaly detection and object classification that is not possible with rule-based machine vision. The combination of an example-based approach with on-device training and user-friendly interface paves the way for simplified solution development. The anomaly detection and classification tools ensure that inspected items fulfill required quality and sorting demands, which helps to improve yield, reduce waste and increase customer satisfaction. In addition, all traditional rule-based machine vision software tools from Quality Inspection toolset are included.

Advantages

Machine vision beyond traditional limits

Anomaly detection tool

The anomaly detection tool finds anomalies in the image and is suitable for complex applications with unpredictable defects. The application areas include inspections of surfaces or welded, glued or soldered pieces as well as injection mold tool inspection.

Training is done solely on good images, and the tool provides the result OK or NOK. It then also presents the detected defect on an anomaly heatmap.

The anomaly detection tool allows for fast and easy on-device application buildup with the capability to train up to 100 images directly on-device (or with the SICK AppEngine as emulator).

Classification tool

The classification tool sorts visually similar objects and is suitable for complex classification and sorting tasks of deformable, variable, organic and reflective material. Convenient for assembly verification and defect classification.

This tool is trained on similar amount of images from all classes and provides the object class that has been recognized somewhere in the image as a result.

Image collection and execution is done on-device. For optimized accuracy and execution speed, the labelling, training and evaluation is done with SICK dStudio. With this solution it’s possible to train more than 100 images.

Reduce waste and warranty claims and improve reliability and productivity

Fast and easy on-device application buildup, for optimized accuracy and execution speed, the labelling, training and evaluation is done with SICK dStudio

The anomaly detection tool is supported for the full on-device application buildup process, while the classification tool uses SICK dStudio for labeling, training and evaluation.

Combined benefits from traditional rule-based tools with deep learning side-by-side

The Intelligent Inspection toolset runs on InspectorP6xx 2D vision sensors and contributes to fast and easy on-device application buildup as well as optimized accuracy and execution speed thanks to training in SICK dStudio.

Traditional rule-based machine vision tools from Quality Inspection toolset are included, making it possible to use the benefits of the existing tool in tandem with deep learning capabilities.

Expand functionality with Nova plug-in tools available in the SICK AppPool or quickly create a custom plug-in tool with the SICK Nova plug-in API.
