The Blue Locate tool is deep learning image analysis software used in manufacturing for finding complex features and objects within a field of view. Blue Locate detects features on noisy backgrounds, in poorly lit environments, on low contrast parts, and even parts that flex or change shape. It locates parts despite variations in perspective, orientation, luminance, glare and color by learning from the samples provided by the user.

The Blue Read tool is used in manufacturing, packaging, and logistics lines to read deformed and poorly-marked characters. Traditional OCR algorithms are fine for clean text on rigid, high contrast backgrounds, but they struggle with skewed ink jet print on deformable packages, or low contrast text stamped in metal. OCR applications that were previously impossible to automate are now possible with the Blue Read tool. Blue Read works right out of the box, without the complex setup of traditional OCR tools, or the need to train from hundreds of samples like many deep learning approaches.

The Red Analyze tool is used to quickly identify defects on complex parts and surfaces. Using a sample set of good images and bad images with labeled defects, Red Analyze learns the normal part variation, while creating a comprehensive understanding of the defects.

The Green Classify tool is a robust classifier that distinguishes between different types of products or objects, identifies defect types, and even inspects images. Learning from a collection of labeled images, Green Classify identifies and sorts products into classes based on their common characteristics such as color, texture, materials, packaging, and defect type. This image analysis tool tolerates natural deviation within the same class and reliably distinguishes acceptable variation from different classes.
