Cross-Border Integration: Enlightening the Future of Intelligent Vision
The forum centered around the concept of "Vision Plus X," featured seven cutting-edge topics that not only demonstrated the core of machine vision technology but also expanded its application boundaries and innovation potential across a wide range of fields. Notably, the remarkable performance of AI+3D vision technology in industrial quality inspection stood out as a key driver for the intelligent transformation of the manufacturing sector.
During the main forum, speakers presented the latest advancements in AI+3D vision technology, demonstrating its capacity to reshape every aspect of industrial quality inspection efficiently and non-invasively. In today’s fast-paced industrial landscape, the AI+3D vision system serves as a precise "quality inspection master." Its exceptional detection capabilities significantly shorten inspection cycles, enabling real-time monitoring and adjustment of production processes. This effectively reduces product backlogs and enhances market responsiveness, granting enterprises a competitive edge.
As a central platform for displaying technologies and applications, the sub-forums hosted nearly 50 keynote speeches and engaging group discussions on the application potential of AI+3D vision technology in sectors such as 3C electronics, semiconductor manufacturing and testing, new energy, smart logistics, smart medical care, and printing and packaging. These discussions provided enterprises with fresh insights and pathways for transformation, fueling their dual leap in cost-effectiveness.
As AI+3D vision technology continues to evolve, its application in industrial quality inspection will become increasingly extensive and in-depth. We are confident that this technology will serve as a crucial engine for the intelligent transformation of the manufacturing sector, contributing significantly to the high-quality development of the global economy.
