Automated Visual Inspection Software
Automated Visual Inspection (AVI) is a form of quality control, which involves the analysis of products in the production line with computer vision.
Since 2013, ScienceSoft has been developing AVI software to help companies improve defect detection rates and reduce production costs.

Why is AVI Better than Manual Inspection?
Machine vision has a number of advantages in comparison with human vision:

Besides that, the automated visual inspection systems have several pros that are intrinsic to the entire machine kind:

AVI Software Use Cases
Quality Control
Ensuring high production quality by reducing both false positive and false negative test results.
Production Line Automation
Minimizing efforts required for defects detection through the automation of monotonous visual inspection, grading and sorting tasks.

What makes ScienceSoft different
We achieve project success no matter what
ScienceSoft does not pass mere project administration off as project management, which, unfortunately, often happens on the market. We practice real project management, achieving project success for our clients no matter what.
AVI Software We Build
AVI system structure
- Equipment for image acquisition (lighting or a radiant; a digital camera, photometer, colorimeter, etc.), software running (a processor) and data output (monitor, printer, etc.).
- Supplementary equipment (e.g., for grading and sorting).
- Software that processes digital images and produces a valuable output.
ScienceSoft creates AVI software that analyzes images captured by a digital camera, starting with preprocessing and up to the final decision step.

AVI software functions
- Displaying inspection results.
- Automatic discarding of defective items.
- Marking items for further human inspection.
- Sorting and grading objects according to predetermined parameters (shape, size, color, etc.).
Image analysis capabilities of AVI software
Automated visual inspection software developed by ScienceSoft can detect and classify:
- Surface defects: scratches, stains, nodules, etc.
- Positioning and orientation: correctness of assembly components’ orientation.
- Dimensions, shapes and angles.
- Completeness: components on a printed circuit board, barcodes on a parcel, a filling level of a bottle.
- Texture.
- Color and reflectivity.
- Presence of foreign objects.

AVI Challenges ScienceSoft Solves
Object variability
For complex objects, significant variations exist in the appearance of both normal and defective items.
Check out the solution
Very small and non-distinctive details
Recognizing features and objects may be difficult if they have a very small size (such as PCA components) or melt into the background (a gray caption on a gray background).
Check out the solution
Illumination variability
Changes in the illumination affect the resulting images creating new lines and disguising existing ones.
