# Industrial Computer Vision QC

Catch product defects at line speed - even defects you don't have many examples of. 100% inspection instead of sampling.

scaffold from **€3,990**

## How it works

01

### Optics first

Camera, lens and lighting engineered for your product and line speed. Half the accuracy is photons, not models - we say that upfront.

02

### Learn normal, not just defects

Anomaly detection learns your good product. Rare defects get flagged from 3 examples - not 3,000 you don't have.

03

### Decide at line speed

Pass or reject in under 50 ms on edge hardware next to the line. Every reject stores the frame, heatmap and score - where and why, not just "fail".

04

### Close the loop weekly

Novel anomalies go to an engineer queue; confirmed ones become new defect classes. Escape rate audited against your human QC.

## Methodology reference

The published method this build is based on, and what it did in production.

Landing AI

**Landing AI** lifted a steel manufacturer's critical-defect detection to 93% across 39 defect classes with LandingLens.

## The Four Guarantees™ - this build

The scaffold wires all four in. The PoC proves them on your data, as of that day. Only Implementation keeps them true over time: watched, drift-checked, with recourse.

### Measured value

Escape rate and false-reject rate agreed upfront against your current QC baseline; eval gate on a held-out defect set before the line goes live.

### Defensible

Every reject carries frame, heatmap and score - batch-traceable evidence for customer claims and recalls, not a black-box verdict.

### Self-improving

Novel anomalies become new defect classes weekly; drift alerts on lighting and camera shift; false rejects reviewed to protect yield.

### Yours & everywhere

Runs on edge hardware next to your line - no cloud round-trip. Full source. MCP endpoint for MES and QMS integration.

## The number, sized honestly

Reference buyer: Lithuanian manufacturer - 1-5 lines, visual defects driving customer claims, manual QC sampling 5-10% of units today.

**100%** inspection - every unit, vs 5-10% manual sampling

**<50 ms** pass/reject decision at line speed, on the edge

**2 rates** escapes & false rejects - both agreed upfront (conservative)

**\~4 mo** payback at the PoC price, at reference claim costs

## Three ways to own it

| Tier | What you get | Price | |
| ---------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------- | |
| **Scaffolding** ★ | The full repo - anomaly + classifier pipeline, edge inference stack, evidence store with heatmaps, eval harness, MCP server. Reference run on public industrial defect data. | **€3,990** | |
| **PoC** ★★RECOMMENDED | Optics assessed and models trained on your product imagery - escape and false-reject rates measured on a held-out defect set from your line. Code + quality report yours. No guarantee before your photons prove it. | from**€12,000** | |
| **Implementation** ★★★ | Production: edge deployment on the line, MES/QMS integration, weekly novel-anomaly loop, lighting-drift monitoring, quarterly escape-rate audits - the agreed numbers (conservative) attach here. | from **€36,000**\+ from €900/month assurance | |

★ = engagement depth. **PoC is the recommended path**: quality proven on your data before production money. The PoC carries no performance guarantee by design; the agreed number (conservative) attaches at Implementation, informed by the PoC report.

## What we don't promise

**Vision QC is only as good as its escape rate - so we measure it.** Both failure directions are reported: escapes (cost you customers) and false rejects (cost you yield), audited against your human QC. Novel defects are flagged as anomalies rather than silently passed. But a defect invisible from the camera's angle stays invisible - lighting and optics are half the project, and that half comes first.
