Guest BioI am a knowledgeable source of factory automation techniques when using machine vision systems, robotics, sensors, and non-contact measurement devices on production lines. My work has used the most influential brands of intelligent cameras, such as Cognex, Keyence, Banner, Omron, Matrox, Dalsa, and more. Most recently, my experience with the Elementary ML platform has shown me what machine learning vision systems can offer, and I am on a path to learning much about the next wave of AI-backed vision systems. My experience reflects 22+ years of hands-on use of machine vision equipment placed directly into production environments.How are people typically using Vision Systems?How can we use them better?Join us as Greg McEntyre is giving us a deep dive into all things Vision Systems.Have questions about or comments on vision systems?Manufacturing Hub Episode 84.
