A new feature has been added to Skylogic's AI image inspection software. Without specifying the type of meter or setting the reading location, the AI automatically identifies the position and type of the meter and performs the reading. In the procedural reading, it was necessary to specify the type of meter to be read (such as analog or digital) and to pre-set the reading locations. With AI (deep learning) meter reading, there is no need to specify the type of meter or set the reading location; the AI automatically identifies the position and type of the meter and performs the reading. 【Target Products】 AI General-Purpose Appearance Inspection Software 'EasyInspector2' AI Automatic Image Monitoring System 'EasyMonitoring2' AI Meter Automatic Monitoring System 'Equipment Monitoring Cloud'

We have released the AI image counting system 'ai-Numbers' that instantly determines the number of sheet materials and thin products. This product analyzes electronic circuit boards with complex edges and sheet products with significant cross-sectional variations from the side at high resolution using AI, automatically determining excess or shortage in as little as 0.3 seconds (※). Furthermore, our unique learning method eliminates the need for threshold settings, fundamentally reducing counting errors while shortening setup time, thereby alleviating the workload in manufacturing sites. (※) Depends on the field of view and counting conditions. Conventional non-contact counting machines extracted one-dimensional brightness from images and counted changes in that brightness. As a result, they could not accurately count due to changes in the state of the edges or because items in transparent bags were partially visible. ai-Numbers uses AI to extract two-dimensional features such as color, patterns, and textures of the edges. This allows for accurate counting of electronic circuit boards with complex edges and sheet products with significant cross-sectional variations. With a maximum resolution of 5,400 pixels capturing the edges, it can count thin sheets of 0.05mm, which was impossible with conventional image counting machines.

In November last year, we released the packaged version of 'NumberVisionAPI' as a new product called 'NumberVision', a license plate recognition system! ■ NumberVision instantly recognizes and digitizes vehicle license plates. This enables various applications such as parking management, enhanced facility security, customer management, and traffic statistics. It can recognize plates with high accuracy even in dark places or bad weather, and since it is a one-time purchase, there are no running costs! It can be flexibly utilized according to the customer's environment, allowing for license plate recognition in diverse situations. ■ Use Cases Monitoring vehicles at factories and construction sites, managing employee parking lots, monitoring unauthorized parking during long stays or outside business hours, managing vehicle entry at hotels and car dealerships, streamlining maintenance reservations, displaying visitors at small businesses and private practices, confirming vehicles during closing hours, simplifying reception tasks in security offices or guardhouses, managing automatic gates in apartments, conducting traffic volume surveys, collecting statistics on visitors at roadside stations, measuring dwell time, reducing costs for coin parking, and managing vehicles at waste disposal facilities, among others. From monitoring vehicles at factories and construction sites to managing employee parking lots, it can be used in a variety of scenarios.
