(Semi-) automating image analysis with Vision AI

Traditional computer vision solutions may come with several challenges to efficiently automate image analysis.

Here's why we use machine learning for computer vision projects:

- 10 x faster image labelling
- Full traceability & transparency (no black box algorithms)
- The ability to resolve much complexer use cases
- No constant retraining is needed
- Scalable & Robust

We've developed a Vision AI platform that can easily be tailored to your use cases. Drawing upon years of expertise in computer vision and machine learning, our solution consists of a foundational layer that seamlessly integrates with your existing soft- and hardware.

Our team of vision AI experts then constructs custom components to precisely meet your unique needs. This approach combines the advantages of customization with the speed and efficiency of off-the-shelf solutions to provide a comprehensive, adaptable solution for your business.

For many use cases, e.g. the automation of microscopy image analysis, it's still important to have your expert in the loop to validate the the results: something we can provide as well.

Business value

Image analysis is a time intensive process and is prone to human errors. Assisted or automated diagnostics enables more accurate analysis at a fraction of the time and cost of traditional methods.

Custom solutions are costly and fail to deliver value fast, while products and specialised equipment do not tailor well to your specific needs.

(Semi-) automating analysis with high accuracy

We leverage the power of AI and big data to semi-automate image analysis with high accuracy. We implement 3 types of AI solutions: classification, object detection and segmentation, or a custom combination of multiple models. This can be fully automated or assisting an expert. This reduces the risk for errors.

Significant speed and cost gain

AI can process images and information much faster than a human can. The custom AI capabilities allow for complex diagnostics of different data types including microscopic and medical images. This frees up time from your domain experts and saves up costs.

Compliance with data regulations

All data coming into our solution is anonymised if necessary. Every prediction is carefully logged in our monitoring application. This allows to audit predictions on a case by case level and inspect all relevant metadata. Our solution is compliant with GDPR and the AI EU act.

Example use cases

Microscopic image analysis

For example, a microscopic image of particles is fully automatically analysed to predict the chance of asbestos on it. If this chance is above a threshold, then an additional lab test is done to make the final decision. This saves time from the domain experts because they only look at the most interesting samples.

Medical imaging

For example, a dental expert makes a diagnosis of the teeth based on their own visual inspection supported by an automated solution. This way less errors are made.


Plant pathology

For example, to segment plant health, leafs are automatically segmented into good or bad regions. This enables the calculation of a pesticide/fungicide efficacy score, which is then used to improve the pesticide management.

Defect detection & Quality control

Flexible and accurate visual quality inspection across production lines (raw material sourcing, manufacturing, packaging) to get the most accurate quality insights for your complex and dynamic products like bricks and wood, in real-time.

SEM Image classification

With the vision AI solution, we can automate the classification of for example Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) images catering to scientific analysis and research needs. SEM imaging offers detailed, high-resolution visuals of nanoscale materials and structures, proving invaluable in material science, biology, and nanotechnology research and exploration.
