We develop our own customized software to meet the diverse needs of our customers and deliver solutions.

Benefits of the NEXTAOI solution

Have a wide range of proven, reliable machine vision software solutions and develop your own custom software

A machine vision solution that achieves the customer’s goals is determined by the performance of the software that analyzes and processes. Rather than cutting-edge hardware, the key is always software.

We apply the world's best-performing machine vision library with fully validated reliability and cutting-edge algorithms, and we develop our own software solutions with rich development experience and rapid problem-solving capabilities.

Develop software solutions that pass very difficult criteria, such as global companies and government agencies labs, enabling true technical support, communication, and reasonable price offers.

Rich variable adjustment for easy use on production lines

A variety of environmental changes can occur in the field. Our vision software solutions include a wealth of variable adjustments to help customers respond to many changes on their own.

Image-centric user interfaces allow personnel to fine-tune variables intuitively and freely to suit their work environment. Drag & Drop with your mouse to automatically connect many standard machine vision tools and automatically deliver workflows to save time and money.

Flexible, visionary software solution that can easily be integrated into the entire development process

Our software can communicate with PLCs and many industry protocols, so vision solutions can be easily integrated into production lines. Today's production needs to be able to quickly adjust small manufacturing and entire production lines. For example, "Recipe" can be used to quickly reconstruct various machine vision tasks. Thanks to all of this, software supports the Internet of Industrial Things and agile production flows, so it maintains forecasts.Repairs can increase production efficiency.

In addition, software triggered by the PLC can perform predefined work flows, such as fault detection. The software reports the findings back to the PLC and then uses them to control the flow of production. If the software reports a fault, the PLC can remove the part from the production line.

PC-based high-speed vision inspection

Multi-CPU parallel processing and GPU utilization make better use of compute power and simplify setup implementation when multi-camera is needed. It can handle massive amounts of data up to a billion-pixel camera, and delivers incredible program speeds 10 to 100 times faster than most scans today.

3D Vision

3D vision tools can be provided based on height images. You can convert images to 3D height images and examine outliers in the image data.

Various image acquisition interfaces

Supports standard image acquisition hardware and USB3 Vision and GigE Vision-compatible cameras.

Solutions based on Smart Camera

The machine vision software library is embedded and supports a ready-to-use, stand-alone smart camera solution without a PC. Small size saves space and is cost-effective.

The combination of extensive algorithms and no coding can be needed, enabling faster deployment of optimal solutions for a variety of applications.

Provides state-of-the-art deep running machine vision technology

Deep running is a learning algorithm that summarizes key content or functions within a large amount of data or complex data, and is a machine vision technology that teaches computers how to think.

Recently, various deep running techniques have been applied to the computer vision field to show the latest machine vision results. Deep running allows customers to use deep learning technology in their own applications, and makes it highly possible to solve challenges that traditional machine vision algorithms could not detect.
