Course
Crash course in vision technology and image processing
Are you a professional interested in industrial cameras and computer vision, but have little to no prior knowledge? Our crash course is just what you need!
This two-day course provides a comprehensive introduction to computer vision, various commercial camera technologies, and various forms of artificial intelligent image processing. You will get a clear overview of the numerous possibilities within computer vision, illustrated with relevant industry examples. After this course, you will therefore be perfectly capable of assessing how computer vision can change your work and life.
This course is designed to not only teach you knowledge, but to let you see and apply this knowledge directly in your field of work. With our interactive approach, you will learn the theory and experience how it is put into practice.
What can you expect from this course?
- Theory and practice combined: Each teaching day consists of a unique mix of theory and hands-on exercises in the industrial vision lab at the University of Antwerp.
- Broad coverage of technologies: In addition to the classic color camera, you will be introduced to lesser-known technologies such as a hyperspectral camera. The latest possibilities in image processing with artificial intelligence will also remain no secret to you.
- Combined academic and industrial perspective: The combination of technology experts from the vision lab at the University of Antwerp and guest lectures on the robust use of image processing in industry highlights all aspects of computer vision.
Program
Workshop Day 1: Camera technologies and vision systems
Purpose: During the first day, participants will gain a thorough understanding of the various camera technologies available forindustrial applications. It will become clear that there is no universal technology suitable for all situations. Participants will learn how specific requirements of an application, such as wavelength (visual,infrared, UV, etc.), speed requirements (for dynamic versus stationary objects), illumination and sensor size, influence the choice of camera. Interactive demos support this introduction.
Content:
- Overview of the most common and widely used cameras in the industry
- In-depth discussion of various camera techniques, with a focus on practical applications
- Factors affecting camera choice: wavelength, speed, exposure and sensor size
- Interactive Demo: Experience the strengths and weaknesses of different camera types through hands-on demonstrations
Workshop Day 2: Industrial image processing: from preprocessing to artificial intelligence
Objective: During day two, participants will learn how to effectively process the data obtained from industrial camera systems to draw accurate and efficient conclusions. This session emphasizes the importance of preprocessing, covers some standard image processing methods, and introduces artificial intelligence to improve data processing and analysis.
Content:
- Preprocessing of data: The importance of camera calibration and artifact removal
- Application of standard algorithms such as PCA and t-SNE for data processing
- Artificial intelligence, machine learning and deep learning: from KNN and SVM to specialized neural networks
- Theory combined with practice: hands-on exercises to put theory into practice and understand the strengths and weaknesses of each processing step
