Industrial applications
Foreign-object and particle detection
Small contaminants, inclusions and ejected particles can appear briefly, move unpredictably and disappear between conventional camera frames. Event-Based Vision isolates these changes as they happen, supporting continuous detection and analysis without capturing every static detail.
Demonstrations have tracked spatter-like particles at frequencies up to 200 kHz and detected inclusion spikes and flow instability in real time during continuous casting.
Typical use cases
- Foreign-object detection
- Contamination monitoring
- Spatter tracking
- Inclusion spike detection
High-speed counting. Count over 1,000 objects and particles per second continuously and without motion blur, more than 99.5% accuracy at full speed.
High-speed counting and inspection
Conventional vision systems can struggle to maintain accuracy as line speeds increase, particularly when objects are small, closely spaced or affected by motion blur. By responding only to relevant change, Prophesee technology enables fast, continuous counting and inspection with limited redundant data.
Typical use cases
- Pharmaceutical pill counting
- Mechanical component counting
- Object gauging
- Surface defect inspection
Particle and object size monitoring
Understanding object size, shape and distribution on a production line can reveal inconsistencies early enough to adjust the process.
With Prophesee, objects and particles can be counted, measured and analyzed continuously as they move through a channel or along a conveyor.
Typical use cases
- Particle-size distribution
- Batch homogeneity
- Pellet gauging
- Closed-loop process control
Particle and object size monitoring. Measure the size and distribution of fast-moving particles with 99% counting precision for continuous quality and process control.
Vibration monitoring. Analyze vibration patterns remotely from 1 Hz to the kHz range, with pixel-level precision, to reveal early changes in machine behavior.
Vibration monitoring and predictive maintenance
Mechanical faults can begin as subtle changes in vibration that periodic inspections or individual contact sensors may not reveal. Prophesee’s Event-Based Vision measures vibration frequencies remotely and continuously across multiple points in the scene.
This provides precise temporal information for identifying abnormal motion, comparing equipment behavior and supporting condition-based maintenance through a global, continuous understanding of vibration patterns.
Typical use cases
- Equipment health monitoring
- Vibration frequency analysis
- Abnormal motion detection
- Predictive maintenance
Additional industrial applications
