pylon AI: new applications, precise and fast

In contrast to traditional algorithms, the algorithms of modern AI systems are constantly learning. This enables new and complex use cases. At the same time, the probability of errors decreases and the readout speed increases, making your application faster and more precise.

Object detection
Locating and counting different and complex objects in the image.
Classification
Classification and systematic grouping of objects into categories.
AI-based OCR
Intelligent text recognition under difficult and changing readout conditions.
Semantic segmentation
Identification of pixel clusters to distinguish object classes and background regions in the image with pixel accuracy.
Instance segmentation
Prediction of pixel-accurate boundaries of each individual object in the image.

pylon AI: AI efficiency for your computer vision application

Our goal: making AI as simple as possible for industrial image processing

That is why pylon AI is part of our pylon Software Suite: The AI models optimized on the pylon AI Platform with pylon AI plug-ins, the pylon AI vTools become your tool in the pylon Software Suite and thus efficiently become part of the entire image processing pipeline. The pylon Software Suite is multi-faceted and adaptable, allowing you to control all functionalities from the camera configuration to image analysis.

pylon AI consists of the pylon AI Platform, a web application that optimizes AI models based on image data, and the pylon AI vTools, the plug-ins that run the AI models.

This is how pylon AI works:

Basler does not provide deep learning models with pylon AI. pylon AI is a toolset for solving AI-based vision applications.

pylon AI supports the following AI model formats:

ONNX (Open Neural Network Exchange): a popular format for exchanging AI models between different AI frameworks.

To meet different machine learning and AI needs, the following formats can be converted to ONNX and are supported:

TensorFlow SavedModel: the standard format for TensorFlow models, suitable for use in TensorFlow Serving and other TensorFlow-based environments.
PyTorch ScriptModule: the PyTorch ScriptModule allows you to save models in a serialized format and load them later in the same or another environment.
HDF5 (Hierarchical Data Format): commonly used to store Keras models and provides a flexible and efficient storage solution.

pylon AI is integrated into the pylon Software Suite, so you have all the functionality you need from image acquisition to image analysis in one software environment. You will need the latest version of the pylon Software Suite, which you can download here for free.

To generate a test image data set, you can use a Basler industrial camera and the pylon Viewer, which is part of the pylon Software Suite. The pylon Viewer is the central tool for capturing images, setting image parameters, and saving images.
