4 models each for anomaly detection and defective point detection.

Defective point detection uses 2.4 Gbytes of GPU memory per model.

Tasks using defective point detection use 2.4 Gbytes of GPU memory per task.

When multiple cameras are connected, phenomenon such as noise may occur in images due to resolution or network conditions. It is recommended that network cards be separated.

For information on usable industrial cameras, please refer to Technical Bulletin FA-A-0419.

“Connectable” means the following:
· Camera-side parameters (exposure time or white balance) can be adjusted in this product.
· Image capture command can be issued directly by this product.
Since it is possible to browse to a folder on the computer and perform AI inspection on stored images, cameras which do not meet the above specifications can also be used.
