Few emerging technologies offer as many opportunities for near- and long-term transformation as computer vision. On the latest Gartner Hype Cycle, computer vision sits ahead of all other solutions, nearing the Plateau of Productivity and its promise of game-changing results. With the help of dedicated providers and partners, industry leaders are seeing the value of computer vision in bringing tried and true processes into a new era, supplementing human capabilities and accelerating innovation.
From reducing reliance on manual detection to reinventing defect recognition, computer vision solutions are transforming legacy processes and supporting cross-industry evolution.
In busy restaurants, managers are tasked with juggling a range of manual tasks—many of which are not directly related to customer service. From parking lots to ensuring mustard is on a burger, computer vision solutions have the potential to alleviate manual workloads with assessments, ongoing insight generation, and automated alerts.
Computer vision’s powers for redefining service excellence while boosting accuracy and precision in restaurants were evidenced in our recent engagement with a major North American chain.
Alongside partners World Wide Technology, with Google Cloud, and Intel, we enabled the chain to optimize buffet management to redefine service excellence and better deliver on its promise of fast, fresh, plentiful favorites.
The job of a farmer or rancher is a really an immense number of jobs in one, many of them characterized by manual, time-consuming processes. Emerging solutions for tracking and monitoring farm activity provide a ‘farmer’s-eye view’ and business-critical data even while farmers focus their efforts elsewhere. Across the AgTech space, computer vision is sowing the seeds of innovation.
Our work with JBS USA, one of the world’s largest food processors, showcases the capabilities of computer vision for automating and improving counting and monitoring for livestock animals.
Legacy, paper- and people-dependent processes for defect detection and quality assurance leave manufacturers of all types vulnerable to errors. With time, business critical data generated with the help of computer vision solutions will enable more proactive, predictive maintenance to avoid slowdowns and stopages. AI-automated processes for verifying the presence of personal protective equipment and process compliance offer additional security.
Across the energy sector, many legacy processes expose employees to unnecessary dangers and risk leaving hazards undetected. Computer vision solutions for assessing the integrity of pipelines allow for more proactive management and solutions for fill-level monitoring and leak detection allow for safe, remote assessments.
Within many enterprises, whole departments are buried in paper thanks to processes that require them to manually review document after document. These processes are tedious, time consuming, and prone to potentially costly errors. High-accuracy vision AI solutions are improving optical character recognition (OCR) to automate processes and take businesses closer to paperless operations across all business units.
