Machine Vision for Industrial Inspection: Bridging Dataset, Algorithms, and Solutions

Zheng Liu, University of British Columbia, Okanagan Campus

Machine Vision is transforming industrial inspection by enabling automated, data-driven evaluation of assets across manufacturing and instrastructure sectors. This talk explores the machine vision innovation pipeline--from compiling meaningful datasets and developing robust algorithms to deploying interoperable, real-world solutions. Emphasis will be placed on how inspection results can inform industrial asset life-cycle management when integrated with standardized frameworks, cloud computing, and industrial IoT platforms. This talk will also discuss how machine vision data feeds into digital twins for real-time monitoring, predictive maintenance, and system optimization.

Using AI, Robotics and Machine Vision to Process and Sort Solid Waste

Joe Castagneri, AMP

AMP uses deep learning to continuously train itself by processing millions of material images into data. The software uses pattern recognition of colors, textures, shapes, sizes, and logos to identify recyclables and contaminants in real time.This presentation will describe AMP's history and vision, its technology and results. With near-zero manual sorting, reliablity, and pervasive data collection and analysis, the company's automated process makes the the recovery of commodities safer and more cost effective and increases recycling rates.
