“WiseEye” can fully automate quality control for the textile industry. Equipped with a high-power LED light bar and a high-resolution charge-coupled device camera, “WiseEye” moves back and forth on a rail to capture images of the whole width of fabric during the weaving process. After being processed with an AI-based machine vision algorithm, the captured images are sent to a computer system in real time for identifying defects and their locations. Alerts are given out when defects are detected. Integrating artificial intelligence, Big Data and deep learning technologies, the system can detect around 40 common fabric defects with over 90% detection rate.
