PV-Inspect

An inline visual inspection system for appliance control panels using reference-based computer vision.

VisionEdgeInfrastructureResearch

Built around the hard part

The constraint shaped the intelligence.

The difficult problem

Production panels required reliable, sub-second defect inspection without requiring a historical training dataset.

The intelligence built

Industrial capture, feature matching, homography alignment and structural differencing compare every unit to a golden template.

How the system works.

The model is one layer. The value comes from connecting inputs, intelligence and production action as one accountable system.

Triggered camera capture

Acquire and structure the operating signal.

SIFT and ORB keypoints

Transform it through the model, rules and control layer.

Homography and SSIM inspection

Deliver a decision, artifact or action into production.

Where it runs

Industrial GigE camera, controlled lighting, Jetson edge compute and conveyor PLC synchronization.

What it changes

A zero-training-data path to automated inline inspection.
