Petra Thanner on the question – Machine Vision 2040: will the challenges be solved?
AIT Senior Research Engineer Petra Thanner (Research Group High-Performance Vision Systems/ Center for Vision, Automation & Control) represented the AIT Austrian Institute of Technology at the Business [...] transition from quality inspection to quality-controlled production. In this sense, machine vision systems are no longer separate sensors. They must be an integrated part of holistic sensor and parameter [...] the value chain and the human operator in addition to direct process parameters. Machine vision systems and AI-based decision making have the potential to create important conditions for a more sustainable
