Computer Vision

Introducing computer vision across the supply chain can help manufacturers predict and prevent the types of conditions that lead to these kinds of disruptions. From potential contaminants and foreign objects to defective products and packaging to unsafe or unsanitary behavior, computer vision is the key to recognizing supply chain obstacles early and stopping shortages in their tracks. AI solutions could prove especially useful in volatile, high-production periods where errors and disruptions are both especially likely and especially costly.

For many, the thought of advanced manufacturing processes conjures images of technology designed to mimic the human arm, safely assembling and handling products. However, some of the most exciting recent developments in the manufacturing space have to do with tech that mimics sight rather than touch. Rapid advancements in computer vision technology are transforming manufacturing by enabling organizations to derive powerful insights from their visual data

In a recent skin cancer research study, Dr. Bülent Bayram and his team at Yildiz Technical University, Department of Geomatics in Istanbul, Turkey, used Plainsight’s vision AI platform to perform image segmentation for early detection and analysis of skin cancer.

By enhancing their computer vision technology and applying AI to visual data like satellite imagery and drone feeds, public and private sector organizations can better recognize wildfire risks, predict the likely path of blazes, and coordinate their fire-fighting efforts to protect communities.

Spotting relevant information in an image or video feed can feel a little like looking for a needle in a haystack, but it doesn’t have to require so much time and effort. Training AI to detect objects can help by streamlining and automating the process of generating insights from visual data.

Visual data truly is the last great untapped resource for enterprises hoping to analyze and better understand their business. Without computer vision technology to derive insights from their images or video streams, organizations are unable to do much more than just collect visual data. AI-powered computer vision solutions offer the means to put visual data to work, improving processes and solving business challenges.
