Peering Into Machine Vision's Future

Emerging technologies could play a key role in machine vision's future.
By Peter Fretty - MAR 11, 2020

A longtime staple of the manufacturing sector, machine vision is the foundation that underpins many emerging technologies, such as robotics, artificial intelligence (AI) and smart glasses, and is estimated to reach a near 100 million installed base in 2025. In the early days, industrial machine vision relied on rule-based programming that involved a lot of human expertise.

The recent emergence of deep learning (DL) technology has propelled the automation of such processes. DL models manage to pick up trends and abnormalities in large image and video sets, under a low level of human involvement. “The machine vision landscape has gone through multiple iterations, and the top three players have demonstrated their strength in keeping up with the technology evolution,” said Lian Jye Su, a Principal Analyst at ABI Research.
