Digital Data Generation Using Vision System

This solution involves converting the readout of a traditional analog gauge information into digital data using a sophisticated vision system. The system is deployed in a brewery. They had many old fully functional pieces of equipment such as boilers, stills, etc. These were all controlled and monitored by humans using traditional analog instruments. In the solution an intelligent camera system converted the analog information into digital information that was fed into a computer system for downstream analysis. The major advantages were reducing the amount of time required to measure, ensuring that measurements were taken at a precise schedule with fewer errors, and the ability to increase the frequency of measurements.
