Computer Vision for Operations

Most sites already have the cameras. This course is about what can honestly be done with them: what vision detects reliably, what it does not, what it costs to run, and how to scope a first project small enough to actually finish. We work on footage from your own site where you can supply it.

  • 2 days
  • Practical
  • Two days, with a session on your own footage

What we cover

  1. 01What vision detects well, and what it still gets wrong
  2. 02Counting, detection, reading and measuring — four different problems
  3. 03Cameras, placement, lighting: why most projects fail here
  4. 04Running on site versus in the cloud, and the bandwidth arithmetic
  5. 05Collecting and labelling examples without stopping production
  6. 06Accuracy in the real world: false alarms and the people who ignore them
  7. 07Scoping a first project that finishes

What you leave with

  • A scoped first vision project for your own site.
  • A camera and placement plan for it.
  • A realistic view of accuracy, cost and what could go wrong.
  • The vocabulary to challenge a vendor's accuracy claim.
Who it's forPlant managers, quality leads, warehouse and site managers, and the technical staff who support them.
