Eigen Innovations and Visometry cooperate on AR software

The integration of Visometry's Visionlib tracking library into Eigen Innovations' products is expected to reduce model training and scaling time for Eigen's customers.

“Thanks to VisionLib and Visometry’s support, we were able to speed up our development time and achieve our accuracy and processing speed goals much faster than if we had developed the object tracking all by ourselves”, says Pickard. “We had our first prototype running within a month”.

“Eigen Innovations’ approach to machine vision is groundbreaking and paves the way to the smart factory of the future. With this partnership, we are excited to contribute to delivering the benefits of AI-driven, scalable quality inspection to manufacturers around the world”, said Harald Wuest, founder and CEO of Visometry.

Details about "Image Twin"

By merging the images captured by the camera(s) with the CAD model of the part, Eigen Image Twin creates a digital twin that can be used to generate the same position and perspective for all parts on all machines. This eliminates unwanted variations in the image data, such as different backgrounds, positions or orientations of the part. As a result, robust machine learning models can be trained with less data and scaled on all machines inspecting the same part.

“With Eigen Image Twin, manufacturers can use the same vision algorithm and AI model everywhere they produce the same part. Not only do they save time and effort in their model training and deployment, they also make their manufacturing truly smart, because new defects detected in one factory can be easily shared with all other factories around the world”, explains Pickard.

Details about "Product Twin"

Eigen Product Twin is a turnkey vision system for inline assembly inspection. The kit consists of vision cameras with accessories such as lenses and cables, and an industrial gateway with pre-installed Eigen Product Twin software.

Eigen Product Twin automatically compares the images of the part with the CAD data. If an error, such as a missing part, is detected, the system alerts personnel to make corrections. Easy to install and configure, it is designed for manufacturers who want to replace manual inspection with machine vision but don't have the time or budget for custom system design and integration.

Details about "Visionlib"

Visionlib is a cross-platform tracking library for enterprise augmented reality applications that require powerful object detection and accurate tracking. Its model tracking combines CAD with machine vision to bring true 3D object tracking to mixed and augmented reality applications.
