Open, powerful, reliable
Edge AI solution for industrial quality control
Custom AI solution on Allied Vision's Alecs open smart camera
AI platform for powerful, flexible next-generation edge AI solutions for industrial quality control
The Bavaria-based senswork GmbH, a specialist in turnkey solutions for industrial image processing, automatic inspection, and deep learning with AI tools, has implemented its Neuralyze Edge vision AI platform on Allied Vision's Alecs open smart camera. The result is an edge AI solution for industrial quality control that combines the advantages of an open smart camera with a proven vision AI platform.
The challenge: Orchestrating System Hardware and Software components
- Finding the optimal combination of the necessary components
- Compact image processing systems are required
- AI algorithms have to be executed directly at the point of use without an external PC
- Full control over one's own data must be ensured
The Solution: Open platform as a basis
- Open smart camera Alecs with the NVIDIA® Jetson Orin™ NX 16 GB System on Module (SoM)
- AI-based image processing and computer vision applications can be implemented directly on the camera.
- Thanks to the Linux-based Board Support Package (BSP) and integrated recovery mode, Senswork can easily implement and run its own software without restrictions.
- Operation on an embedded platform without compromising the software's functionality or user-friendliness
- Optimal collaboration between image acquisition and AI processing while fully utilizing the available computing power.
Your Benefits: Advantages cleverly combined
- Powerful solution consisting of an open embedded hardware platform and ready-to-use, industrial-grade software
- Even users without any programming knowledge can train and customize AI models
- Protection of sensitive data
- Hardware complies with protection class IP67
- Reliable operation even in demanding environments
- Sufficient computing power for deep learning algorithms
- Open, Linux-based architecture enables flexible software integration
