Deep learning enables machine vision solutions for applications where defects or inspection criteria cannot be easily quantified or mathematically defined. It offers machine vision designers a powerful new tool for advanced inspection, assembly, and quality assurance applications because the software essentially helps the designer develop the best possible algorithm. But until recently, creating deep learning software required traditional programming skills, preferably combined with a strong grounding in statistics and traditional machine vision system design.

Today, thanks to deep learning – enabled smart cameras, gateways and application-specific coding, deep learning for the masses may be a few clicks away.  Full Article
