Object detection

In object detection, objects are captured in internal or external areas independent of their size or position. One field in which object detection is used is intralogistics, where it improves the throughput of conveyor systems. When used in external areas, object detection helps prevent collisions. Object detection also secures and improves the availability of machines and systems such as those found in steel mills, ports, and other areas.
