"Machine vision is an important area of automation. With the increasing shortage of skilled workers and competitiveness in manufacturing, the importance of this technology is growing.
This is where we come in with the MVTec on Campus program by supporting future specialists already during their studies", explains Franziska Hartl, who is responsible for the "on Campus" program at MVTec.
For the fifth anniversary of the program, students now have access to the low-code image processing software MVTec MERLIC in addition to MVTec HALCON. The software is known for its ease of use and comprehensive functionalities, such as state-of-the-art deep learning methods.
Another new benefit is the access to the MVTec Academy as part of the "on Campus" program. The MVTec Academy is a digital learning platform that offers interactive online courses on MVTec products. In addition to basic training courses, the platform also offers in-depth content for several areas of machine vision. The anniversary is rounded off with an anniversary campaign that includes webinars for students to learn more about the use of MVTec software products.
Students benefit from the program by being able to attach a certificate from the "on Campus" program to their application documents for future employers. This enables them to demonstrate their qualifications in the field of automation. Since 2019, MVTec has been supporting students, lecturers, and universities through the "on Campus" program by making its technologically leading and hardware-independent software available for academic purposes with free and discounted offers. The company has already distributed approximately 15,000 licenses to educators and students in over 40 countries. In other words, more than 120 faculties from a wide range of disciplines worldwide are actively using MVTec software products.
