The new deep-learning-based technology Deep Counting offers significant advantages over existing machine vision methods: The feature can be deployed very quickly, since only very few objects need to be labeled and trained – both steps can be easily done within HALCON. The technology provides reliable results even for objects of highly reflective and amorphous material. With Deep Counting large numbers of objects such as glass bottles, tree trunks, or food can be counted.

phil-vision will show a system where two cameras inspect boxes of different sizes, previously unknown, for defects and dimensions. The software is based on MVTec HALCON. First, check if the walls/planes are rectangular, from the planar volume dimensions are calculated. Various features of the 3D point clouds are measured and extracted. The system checks and locates deviations in the surface profile of the boxes.

phil-vision develops solutions for a wide range of image processing applications – from barcode reading to automatic object detection, 2D- and 3D-measurement tools, and AI solutions, from system design to a fully integrated solution. Their aim is to “make your vision come true”. They have been an MVTec Certified Integration Partner since 2018.

In this demonstration, BitFlow's is showing its new CoaXPress over Fiber (CoF) frame grabber. It captures data from CoF cameras at data rates up to 40 Gb/S, supports cable lengths of many kilometers, and uses low-cost off-the-shelf fiber cable assemblies. The grabber is feeding high speed images directly into MVTec HALCON's memory buffers. The HALCON program shown here has very few lines of code, yet is capable of some very powerful object tracking. 

BitFlow has been making frame grabbers for the Machine Vision market since 1993. BitFlow focuses on the high-speed, high-resolution, non-standard format section of the image market. BitFlow's frame grabbers were one of the first to be integrated with HALCON back in 1997. BitFlow is an MVTec Image Aquisition Partner.
