Reliable & precise object detection

Alignment & Matching

MVTec software reliably and precisely locates objects – with an accuracy of better than 1/20th of a pixel, even in the case of partial occlusion. This allows for determining object positions and aligning images for further processing steps.

EXCEPTIONALLY ROBUST

Correlation-based Matching

This technology is particularly robust against blurriness, edge deformation, rotation, and texture.

Objects are reliably found even in blurred images.

SUBPIXEL-ACCURATE AND REAL-TIME DETECTION

Shape-based Matching

The subpixel-accurate template-based matching detects objects in real-time – even with rotation, scaling, perspective distortion, local deformation, partial occlusion, or lighting variations. It supports 8- and 16-bit images, as well as color and multi-channel images. Objects can be trained using image templates or CAD data.

In the following tutorial videos, you will learn how to create various applications for template-based matching with our software:

EXTREMELY FAST DETECTION

Descriptor-based Matching

For textured planar objects, MVTec software offers an extremely fast method that reliably locates objects even with arbitrary rotation or tilting.

Descriptor-based matching detects planar objects extremely quickly.

Locally deformable matching detects objects with deformed surfaces.

Component-based matching quickly and robustly detects composite objects with MVTec HALCON..

Component-based matching detects composite objects in a single step.

Shape-based 3D Matching

This technology detects arbitrarily arranged 3D objects with a single camera. Position and orientation are determined using CAD models, contours, or shape features such as circles and squares. Application areas include CAD-based localization and bin-picking with stereo methods.

3D matching in combination with binocular stereo.

Localization of a known object with 3D matching.

Surface-based 3D matching with multi-view stereo.
