The industrial sector remains one of the areas most benefited by technology solutions created through Artificial Intelligence (AI). Computer Vision, a branch of AI that studies the processing and interpretation of images through a computer, is here to revolutionize quality inspection and item counting processes, which until then were done through human labor. Pix Counter is a solution created by Pix Force to address pain points within industries. Automated through mobile or static devices, the solution has the ability to count countless items on a production line or transport cargo, such as iron bars, which are usually arranged in large quantities. Pix Counter is equipped with RGB cameras and, in addition to recording the image, can interpret it with up to 95% accuracy, which is the proximity between the experimentally obtained value and the true value.

Machine to Machine or M2M Concept
Products that work with the M2M concept are those equipped with a remote sensor that works to monitor, collect, and analyze data regarding a specific process. This data, which is transmitted to another equipment (or server), is used and understood by software, whose mission is to interpret the material and answer the industry's questions. M2M solutions are increasingly used to replace human labor in exhausting tasks subject to error due to physical and mental fatigue. The solution created by Pix Force is capable of counting huge quantities of the same item, carrying out traceability and auditing of production chains, and even estimating the weight of loads of the same product so as not to overload transport axles.
The importance of investing in traceability
Traceability is nothing more than the concept of controlling a product through its origin and location within the logistics chain. To guarantee the traceability of an item, a reading system using numbers or identification codes is necessary, in order to add security and quality control within the production process. The codes, which are specific to each product, ensure quality control and even speed up a possible recall, which is the request to return an entire batch or line of a product if a manufacturing error is identified. Furthermore, the traceability process also aims for transparency in the delivery processes, since it identifies exactly the quantity of items that reached the consumer, regardless of the volume.
How Computer Vision solutions operate in industries
Quality control in industries is being revolutionized by the application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) solutions. Processes that previously relied on the human mind to function now happen through intelligent machines with negligible margins of error, which increases product quality and optimizes the company's workforce. Working with computer vision solutions can happen in various ways. With cameras and sensors, as is the case with Pix Counter, or also with motion or presence detectors. Deeptrack, an example of a solution also created by Pix Force and in partnership with Eneva, works in the mining industry identifying overheating in conveyor belts responsible for input logistics through infrared sensors and RGB cameras, for example. Having problems in extremely mechanical processes solved by technology promotes better utilization of employees, who begin to develop strategic roles within the corporation. Likewise, it ensures that the company works on the continuous improvement of its management and processes, moving towards exponential growth. #computervision #ArtificialIntelligence #pixcounter #counting #technology #pixforce #Industries
