The Industrial Vision Days are organized by VDMA Machine Vision together with Messe Stuttgart. The focus of the forum: Visionaries from the image processing industry.

Mark Williamson, Chairman of the VDMA Machine Vision department: "The Industrial Vision Days will again offer many exciting lectures from all areas of image processing, be it camera technology, robot vision and 3D vision, software and AI, optics and lighting, hyperspectral image processing, image processing standards and new applications. The approximately 50 company presentations, 16 start-up pitches and the presentations of the five finalists of the Vision Award show how innovative the image processing industry is. A look at the Industrial Vision Days program makes it clear that deep learning is still the hot topic. Many of the start-up pitches promise an innovative leap through deep learning. Of course I'm excited and I'll be happy to be convinced as a jury member in the three start-up pitch sessions!"

The lecture program of the Industrial Vision Days is already available online. Another item on the program is the Vision Award, which will again be presented on the forum stage. For the 25th time, the best innovations in the field of image processing will be chosen this year. “We received a total of 61 submissions. This corresponds to an increase of almost 40 percent compared to the previous year. That's an impressive number," says Florian Niethammer, Head of Trade Fairs and Events at Messe Stuttgart.

The Vision Award jury drew up a shortlist of the most interesting developments from all submissions. "The trend topics of image processing were found among the submissions for the Vision Award 2022: embedded vision, artificial intelligence, components, vision toolboxes as well as algorithmic and application-specific work. This year, the high quality of the submissions for the Vision Award is particularly noteworthy As a result, the five companies Brighter AI Technologies GmbH, Edge Impulse, Kitov.ai, Saccade Vision Ltd. and SWIR Vision Systems Inc. will be able to present their innovations live at Vision on October 5th, 2022,” summarizes Christian Ripperda, Managing Director of Interroll Innovation and Vision Award jury member, together.
