Jeremy Bergh, president, North America at IDS Imaging Development Systems, fills us in on how advances in AI are broadening opportunities for customers. The IDS NXT is a smart camera that allows users to create their own vision apps and put them directly on the device. Meanwhile, IDS NXT ocean — an all-in-one embedded vision package that adds neural networks right onboard the camera — makes deep learning easy to use. (Translation: No coding experience required.) IDS customers are using the technology in applications ranging from the simple (e.g., watching for overhead lights to turn on) to the more complex, notably in the agriculture industry for tasks like fruit inspection or estimating the yield of wine production. Also hear Bergh’s take on 3D camera improvements and the unique way IDS is overcoming supply chain issues.
