Machine vision combined with artificial intelligence allows robots to both "understand" and "think"

Publishing Date:2021-06-04 09:06:12    Views:

       Although machine vision technology has been introduced into China        as early as the 1980s , the real development will only start in the past 10 years. Compared with foreign countries, our country started late and its technology is relatively backward. At present, technologies such as sensors, image processing and optical imaging are rapidly rising and developing, giving wings to the development of machine vision in China, allowing it to gradually penetrate into various fields, and the market blue ocean is also constantly expanding.

As the direct integration point of artificial intelligence technology and industrial manufacturing, machine vision is expected to continue to develop rapidly. With the help of the good international development environment and various domestic industrial driving factors, more and more companies will develop and apply machine vision in the future. The development of my country's machine vision industry will continue to accelerate.

What drives the development of machine vision

After 2008, domestic machine vision began to enter a stage of rapid development. During this stage, many machine vision core device R&D manufacturers continued to emerge, and a large number of real system-level engineers were continuously trained, which promoted the high-speed and high-speed development of the domestic machine vision industry. Quality development. Machine vision has achieved such rapid development in China mainly for the following reasons:

1. Stimulation of market demand

In recent years, the development of semiconductors and electronic appliances has led to a rapid increase in demand for machine vision. As the global semiconductor market exceeds the US$400 billion mark, the machine vision market is also growing. At the same time, since the "Made in China 2025" strategy was proposed, the robot industry has also developed by leaps and bounds, which has also made machine vision, the "eyes" of robots, rise all the way.

2. National policy support

The technological breakthroughs brought about by my country's patent applications, the influx of capital brought about by the establishment of national brands, and the successive introduction of industrial policies such as semiconductors, robots, and machine vision have all provided an important foundation and guarantee for the rapid development of domestic machine vision.

3. Own advantages

As a comprehensive technology, machine vision can, on the one hand, replace the application of artificial vision in special environments, improving efficiency and speed while ensuring artificial safety. On the other hand, the application of machine vision in different scenarios is often just a replacement of software. It has great advantages in reducing labor costs and hardware replacement costs.

What effect does it have on industrial robots?

In recent years, the rapid development of robots, especially industrial robots, has driven a substantial increase in demand for machine vision markets. Nowadays, as the trend of intelligence continues to highlight, the application of machine vision in the industrial field is becoming increasingly widespread.

1. Let the robot “understand”

If you want robots to replace human work well, the first thing you need to do is to make them "understand". Machine vision is equivalent to equipping industrial robots with "eyes" so that they can understand clearly and tirelessly. See objects and play the inspection and detection function of the human eye, which is very important in highly automated mass production.

2. Let the robot “think”

For industrial robots, only when they have the ability to observe things can they judge things well, so that they can solve some problems on their own intelligently and flexibly. Machine vision gives it a sophisticated computing system and processing system, simulating the way biological vision imaging and processing information allows the robot to perform more human-like and flexible operations. It can also identify, compare, and process scenes, generate execution instructions, and then complete actions in one go. 

Although the gap still exists, it is undeniable that the development of my country's machine vision industry has indeed made significant progress in recent years. In the future, machine vision will also be widely used in people's daily lives, allowing everyone to feel the charm of smart technological life.
