The challenge lies in optimizing our commodities to ensure a steady and efficient workflow. <strong>Computer Vision technologies<\/strong> can help us with this. They allow us to monitor and rationalize production processes, avoid waste and ensure that work proceeds better.<\/p>\n<h2>Computer Vision: choosing raw materials for Industrial Production<\/h2>\n<p>In the industrial production sector, where complex machinery manipulates raw materials to create products and services, <strong>Computer Vision can control machine functioning to minimize wear on components<\/strong>.

When it recognizes that the material is in the wrong position, the machine rotates it. That demonstrates how <strong>Computer Vision recognition mechanisms can optimize expensive and delicate resources<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-14909 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/staging.uqido.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/vinevision.jpg\" alt=\"Esempio di Computer Vision per l'Agricoltura con un robot che ispeziona le piante in una serra\" width=\"1430\" height=\"1070\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.uqido.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/vinevision.jpg 1430w, https:\/\/staging.uqido.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/vinevision-300x224.jpg 300w, https:\/\/staging.uqido.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/vinevision-1024x766.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/staging.uqido.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/vinevision-768x575.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1430px) 100vw, 1430px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The fields in which where to apply optimization solutions are potentially infinite. <a href=\"http:\/\/staging.uqido.com\/en\/insights\/control-quality-computer-vision\/\">Vine Vision<\/a> uses <strong>Computer Vision systems for agricultural purposes<\/strong>. The project addresses the problem of fungal infections that affect organic vineyards. To avoid the use of pesticides, it uses treatments based on sulfur and copper sulfate. However, the use of metallic compounds is a delicate operation that farmers can perform with the support of AI Technologies: <strong>Computer Vision and Machine Learning systems<\/strong> monitor treatments to ensure that the concentration of metals on the vine remains within legal limits. This way, not only the health of the plant but also the harvest is safe. The grapes are protected from pests, and cultivation remains organic.<\/p>\n<h2><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Computer Vision for\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">automatic quality control<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">But the resources to be optimized can also be human. There are many monotonous and repetitive activities assigned to people that could be replaced by technological support. For example, the control of products on supermarket shelves: <strong>a robot equipped with Computer Vision technologies<\/strong> could recognize empty shelves and retrieve the needed products. This is not a way to replace employees but rather a solution that lightens their workload, allowing them to focus on more enjoyable activities.
