Here is an example of inspecting the number of transparent zip bags. "Deep Counter" is an AI software that uses Deep Learning technology to achieve high-precision counting of unspecified items and objects placed in various orientations, which was difficult to accomplish with traditional rule-based image recognition technology. It counts quickly and accurately using Rist's unique AI algorithm, contributing to the reduction of manual counting tasks done by "visual inspection" on-site. 1. Improved accuracy: Prevents counting errors and oversights from manual work. 2. Time savings: Speeds up the process with cameras, improving work efficiency. 3. Alleviation of labor shortages: Reduces workload and addresses labor shortages. 4. Cost reduction: Cuts labor costs, reduces losses due to errors, and minimizes losses. 5. Data utilization: Enables real-time recording and monitoring, and can be used for data analysis.

Let's TRY first!! - Detection of scratches and cracks (surface defects on metals, plastics, glass, etc.) - Detection of dirt and stains (defects in food, packaging, printed materials, etc.) - Foreign object contamination (in food, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics manufacturing lines) - Product size (detection of protrusions and chips) - Detection of missing or deformed parts (such as plastic and metal components) - Detection of bending and warping (such as circuit boards, films, panels) - Color unevenness and discoloration (such as painting and food cooking levels) - Classification of non-standard products (sorting good and defective products) - Product identification and classification (confirmation of mixed varieties, etc.)

In the manufacturing industry, "inspection operations" are essential for ensuring product quality. It is a crucial task to prevent the accidental shipment of defective products, but it does not directly contribute to profits. However, once defective products are shipped, it can lead to trust issues for the company. We also solve the challenges of transitioning from manual visual inspections to automated inspections using cameras! > We will implement it with minimal changes to current procedures and work rules. > Inspections are conducted without stopping, in line with the speed of the operators. > We distinguish not only the items but also the people involved. > Count before stacking products. Reduction of inspectors Reduction of human errors Increased work efficiency Ensuring traceability We will gather specific data on the challenges on-site and detailed opinions from employees. By clarifying the issues, we will propose the necessity and utilization of AI, as well as the effects of its implementation. We will also assist in modifying existing systems to integrate with AI. ★ Unlike conventional Deep Learning, we are developing a unique reinforcement learning AI that incorporates the engineering technology of "self-growing" biomimicry. Please feel free to consult us about inspection themes you may have previously given up on!

Free tests are being conducted at any time! We will assist you with imaging through work borrowing! We will propose the optimal imaging environment! Challenges of AI Implementation 1. Large number of samples Typically, a large number of samples are required for AI inspection implementation. → With 'gLupe', you can start testing with just one defective sample at a minimum. You can use multiple defects within a single image for learning and evaluation. 2. Unclear parameters and need for specialized knowledge We often hear feedback like, "I purchased AI inspection software, but it's difficult to use and I'm not achieving good accuracy." → With 'gLupe', anyone can use it with simple operations. Just roughly mark the defective areas and other locations. No complex parameter settings are needed. Even without specialized knowledge, anyone can build an inspection AI! 3. Time and cost involved Not only the initial investment but also the operation requires a tremendous amount of time and cost. → With 'gLupe', in-house production is easy! While manufacturer support is robust, the majority of our customers create the software themselves.

The OPPX series is an LED lighting controller that supports 12V and 24V inputs, allowing connection not only to our own lighting products but also to those from other manufacturers. It accommodates three dimming methods: PWM, constant voltage, and strobe overdrive, enabling the unification of controllers even when using different types of lighting, thus achieving reduced wiring and space-saving. ◆ Monitoring Function It measures the brightness of the lighting using a built-in photodiode and allows reference to brightness and temperature measurements on the controller. ◆ Feedback Control If brightness decreases due to voltage drop from extension cables or degradation of LEDs, the output voltage is automatically corrected to maintain the brightness level from the time of factory shipment. ◆ Identification of Individual Lights Data such as the cumulative operating time, which varies for each unit, can be referenced and used for predictive maintenance. ◆ Monitor Brightness Alarm An alarm output for brightness reduction can be triggered against a pre-set threshold. ◆ Absolute Brightness Dimming By setting the absolute brightness values to be the same among the lights, it is possible to achieve uniform brightness without individual variation.
