has such a vivid metaphor: If manufacturing is compared to the human body, then machine vision is dazzling. With the advancement of manufacturing transformation and upgrading, the market demand for the application of machine vision is growing day by day.

On the afternoon of June 21, the “5G + Machine Vision” Industry Application Salon organized by the Municipal Industry and Information Technology Bureau was officially held. As one of the Qingdao Industrial Internet's "Four New Pilots" Benefit Enterprise Month series of activities, this salon mainly focuses on the promotion and application of "5G + machine vision" and invites industry experts, scholars, and entrepreneurs to discuss and exchange the application of 5G in machine vision. Path, explore new paths for 5G to help enterprises digitally transform from to , and build a platform for enterprise supply and demand docking and technology exchange.

5G+machine vision makes the "eyes" of intelligent manufacturing clear and bright

Machine vision is a rapidly developing branch of artificial intelligence . Simply put, it uses machines to replace human eyes for measurement, detection and control, to obtain information and to perceive the world. As various industries have higher and higher demands for industrial automation and intelligence using image and machine vision technology , machine vision has gradually begun to be applied in the field of industrial manufacturing. It is used in production quality inspection, intelligent sorting of items, and on-site safety. It has been prominently used in inspection and other fields.

converts the captured target into an image signal through machine vision, transmits it to a dedicated image processing system, and performs various operations to extract the characteristics of the target, thereby controlling the on-site equipment actions. If machine vision is the "eyes" in the entire intelligent manufacturing process, then 5G will make these eyes more "clear and bright" with its low latency and large bandwidth.

5G has advantages over 4G and other connection methods in transmitting image data. 5G will make the machine vision system more flexible. Control instructions such as video collection, transmission, and data processing and analysis are all uploaded to the cloud using 5G, which can greatly improve the response speed of the entire control system and pave the way for the scale of industrial machine vision. ization provides the network foundation and ultimately promotes the construction of the entire Industrial Internet .

Today, as labor costs continue to increase and the manufacturing industry pursues high efficiency, machine vision has become an indispensable means on the production line. The addition of 5G technology has allowed machine vision to bring revolutionary changes to the entire manufacturing industry, integrating high accuracy , fast speed, low cost, easy integration and other multiple advantages, greatly improving work efficiency and quality.

Hundreds of flowers are blooming. The large-scale application of "5G + machine vision" is timely.

From concept to application, the domestic machine vision industry is developing rapidly. With the support of 5G technology, whether it is industry, agriculture, services or manufacturing, intelligent solutions based on machine vision Solutions account for more than 80% of the intelligent system. "It is expected that by 2025, the size of my country's machine vision market will reach 24.6 billion yuan. China is becoming one of the most active areas in the development of machine vision in the world. The large-scale application of '5G + machine vision' is at the right time!" Qingdao University of Science and Technology Professor Wang Chuanxu, the master’s tutor, commented this way.

And the application of Qingdao is also in full bloom. In the salon event held on the 21st, more than 40 company representatives and some industry experts shared cases on the spot, sparking ideas in the exchange. Haier Group combined its actual production line deployment, application and application effects of machine vision based on 5G to show everyone the fruitful results of Haier smart manufacturing digital transformation; Isaac Technology shared how "5G connected drones + AI" can help wisdom Urban traffic management; Oukai Intelligent also demonstrated new applications of machine vision in the fields of identification, monitoring, measurement, positioning and guidance... Various industries have brilliant implementation applications, contributing to the digital transformation and upgrading of Qingdao enterprises.

“In the past large-scale industrial production processes, we mainly relied on artificial vision to measure, identify and analyze products.You will find that artificial vision processing has low efficiency, poor stability and low accuracy, but machine vision is different. It can greatly improve processing efficiency and automation. At the same time, it can be used in some dangerous working environments or people that are not suitable for manual work. Machine vision is often used to replace the human eye in situations where the human eye cannot meet the requirements, such as nuclear power plant monitoring, crystal defect detection, etc. Moreover, machine vision can quickly obtain a large amount of information, and is easy to automatically process and integrate information. It can greatly improve efficiency in the modern automated production process, which is very beneficial to enterprises. " Fan Guangzhi, general manager of Qingdao Zhuozhong Information Technology Co., Ltd., demonstrated "5G + machine vision" solutions in various application scenarios at the scene.

The entire industry is soliciting "producing products through competition" to promote the large-scale development of 5G applications.

Today, "5G + machine vision" "Visual" is accelerating its entry into enterprise workshops and integrating into traditional manufacturing industries. However, in practical applications, there are still problems such as the easy formation of data islands and , complex line maintenance and software upgrades, and narrow application scenarios. How to solve it has become an urgent problem that needs to be solved. .

"The current application of machine vision in the industry is still lacking, mainly due to the greater convergence of applications. Many companies tend to focus on mid- and low-level technology applications, making high-level application capabilities weak and a lot of demand Major technical difficulties have not yet been completely overcome. "In the view of Professor Sun Lin, Shandong University of Science and Technology's doctoral tutor, the application of machine vision needs to be further "deepened" and "broadened." On the one hand, relevant companies need to have the spirit of "gnawing hard bones" to go deep into a specific To conduct research in the field, we can work together with local universities and scientific research institutes to overcome problems and move toward high-level technology applications; on the other hand, we must also use the 5G technology platform to broaden application channels so that more people know and adapt to machine vision technology, so as to Achieve large-scale applications.

"Our excellent cases should not only be shared within the circle, but also competed on larger platforms to compete with masters. " Wang Zhenpeng, Secretary-General of Qingdao Informatization Promotion Association, encourages more companies and individuals to participate in the fifth "Blooming Cup" 5G Application Collection Competition, which is currently collecting projects. As an event hosted by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology , its professionalism is self-evident, and the current "Blooming Cup" smart park special competition is held in Qingdao, which provides geographical advantages for some local companies.

This smart park special competition landed in Qingdao to "5G empower the park" The theme of "Promoting Ecological Prosperity" can also further promote the application of Qingdao's 5G application comprehensive park and further accelerate the construction of 5G industrial development system in smart parks. And local companies with relevant practical cases in Qingdao will have the opportunity to lead the industry with competition. , demonstrate yourself while further learning from excellent experience, explore and form a development model that can be replicated and promoted, further promote the large-scale development of 5G applications, and contribute to Qingdao’s creation of a 5G + industrial Internet integrated application pilot area.
