GHENT — Robovision, a leader in computer vision AI since 2009, is set to launch its transformative Edge software, enhancing the Robovision AI Platform. Known for simplifying AI lifecycle management and enabling large-scale AI deployments (over 1,000 machines), the new software will offer manufacturers and OEM machine builders an affordable, future-proof way to optimize production lines. By cutting hardware costs significantly, savings are expected to range from thousands to tens of thousands of dollars.

Designed to serve as the “eyes and brain” of production lines, Robovision Edge empowers manufacturers to make data-driven decisions and turn outliers into competitive advantages. Its intuitive interface allows operators to capture valuable data and seamlessly integrate it with the Robovision AI platform for governance and further AI model development.

One of the standout features of Robovision Edge is its hardware flexibility. Moving beyond the constraints of specific hardware requirements, Robovision now supports integration with any system meeting basic performance standards. This opens up new cost-saving opportunities and optimizes operational efficiency across industries.

“By offering complete hardware agnosticism, we eliminate barriers for customers, giving them the flexibility to use their preferred hardware, while ensuring smooth integration and reduced downtime,” explained Thomas Van den Driessche, CEO of Robovision.

In addition to hardware freedom, Robovision’s software facilitates seamless data exchange between local devices and central systems. By supporting a variety of application-specific algorithms and APIs, it streamlines communications and enhances the overall production process.

Robovision Edge is designed for complex environments, such as plant robotics and semiconductor manufacturing. With its robust software and hardware compatibility, it equips manufacturers to stay competitive in fast-evolving markets.

Bart Baekelandt, VP of Product Management at Robovision, emphasized the software’s adaptability. “By integrating with existing Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) and supporting industry standards like OPC-UA and REST API, Robovision Edge provides a tailored solution for every production line.”
