Computer vision has many applications in industrial manufacturing. One such application is in the automation of visual inspection for quality control and assurance.

Most manufacturing companies train their people to manually perform visual inspection, which is a manual process of inspection that can be subjective, resulting in accuracy that is dependent on the experience and opinion of the individual inspector. It should also be noted that this process is labor intensive.

In cases when ...
