  • Patent number: 12131459
    Abstract: Data is received that includes a feed of images of a plurality of objects passing in front of an inspection camera module forming part of a quality assurance inspection system. Thereafter, it is detected whether there is an object within each image. Based on this detection, images in which each object is detected that meet predefined object representation parameters are identified (on an object-by-object basis, etc.). The identified images are provided to a consuming application or process for quality assurance analysis. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.

  • Patent number: 12096157
    Abstract: Each of a plurality of co-located inspection camera modules captures raw images of objects passing in front of the co-located inspection camera modules which form part of a quality assurance inspection system. The inspection camera modules have either a different image sensor or lens focal properties and generate different feeds of raw images. The co-located inspection camera modules can reside within a single standalone module and be selectively switched amongst to activate the corresponding feed of raw images. The activated feed of raw images is provided to a consuming application or process for quality assurance analysis.

  • Patent number: 12051186
    Abstract: Data is received that includes a feed of images of a plurality of objects passing in front of an inspection camera module forming part of a quality assurance inspection system. Thereafter, a machine learning model is used to generate a representation of each image. These representations are analyzed to determine a type of object captured in the corresponding image. This analysis can be provided to a consuming application or process for quality assurance analysis.

  • Patent number: 12050454
    Abstract: Data is received that includes a feed of images of a plurality of objects passing in front of each of a plurality of inspection camera modules forming part of each of a plurality of stations. The stations can together form part of a quality assurance inspection system. The objects when combined or assembled, can form a product. The received data derived from each inspection camera module can be separately analyzed using at least one image analysis inspection tool. The analyzing can include visually detecting a unique identifier for each object. The images are transmitted with results from the inspection camera modules along with the unique identifiers to a cloud-based server to correlate results from the analyzing for each inspection camera module on an product-by-product basis. Access to the correlated results can be provided to a consuming application or process via the cloud-based server.

  • Patent number: 11954846
    Abstract: A video processing pipeline receives data derived from a feed of images of a plurality of objects passing in front of an inspection camera module forming part of a quality assurance inspection system. Quality assurance metrics for the object are generated by one or more containerized image analysis inspection tools forming part of the video processing pipeline using the received data for each object. Overlay images are later generated that characterize the quality assurance metrics. These overlay images are combined with the corresponding image of the object to generate an enhanced image of each of the objects. These enhanced images are provided to a consuming application or process for quality assurance analysis.

  • Patent number: 11675345
    Abstract: Data is received that is derived from each of a plurality of inspection camera modules forming part of a quality assurance inspection system. The data includes a feed of images of a plurality of objects passing in front of the respective inspection camera module. Thereafter, the received data is separately analyzed by each inspection camera module using at least one image analysis inspection tool.

  • Patent number: 11386289
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are embodiments related to robot-aided product inspection. For example, an inspection apparatus may include a processing device to communicatively couple to a robotic apparatus, to a display device, and to a user input device. The processing device may: receive an image of an item, wherein the image was captured by the robotic apparatus; generate a proposed classification for the image, wherein the classification indicates an attribute of the item based on the image; cause the image to be displayed on the display device along with the proposed classification; and receive an indication from the user input device of a final classification of the image.

  • Publication number: 20210129339
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are embodiments related to calibration and zeroing in robotic systems. For example, an apparatus for robotic zeroing may include a processing device to perform a joint zeroing operation on a first joint assembly of a robotic apparatus. The joint zeroing operation may include: determining a reference vector for zeroing the first joint assembly, wherein the first joint assembly is mechanically coupled to a base of the robotic apparatus; identifying an acceleration vector representative of an orientation of a second joint assembly of the robotic apparatus, wherein the first joint assembly is mechanically between the base and the second joint assembly; determining whether the acceleration vector is aligned with the reference vector; and, in response to a determination that the acceleration vector is not aligned with the reference vector, causing the first joint assembly to move.
