Supporting manufacturers with reliable defect identification and scalable quality control across production lines
Leica Microsystems, a Danaher company and a leading provider of microscopy and scientific solutions, and Cognex Corporation, the leader in industrial machine vision, today announced Aivaro AI Feature Detection, a new AI-powered software module that automatically identifies, classifies and measures defects and other features of interest during inspection. Integrated into the Enersight software platform from Leica Microsystems, the module helps production managers and engineers standardize inspection, improve efficiency and scale deployment across production environments.
“Manufacturers need a practical way to improve inspection consistency and productivity,” said Nicolas Pierre, Vice President and General Manager Life Science and Applied Solutions at Leica Microsystems. “By integrating Aivaro AI Feature Detection into the familiar Enersight platform, we are helping quality teams perform routine inspection tasks more efficiently, standardize workflows, and support consistent inspection decisions across sites and with more confidence.”
Building on industry-proven vision software AI technology from Cognex, Aivaro AI Feature Detection offers consistent detection, classification, and measurements during routine quality control. Previous microscope settings and imaging parameters are easily reproduced to support efficient and standardized inspection workflows. The system also enables reporting of statistical values, such as minimum, maximum, and average measurements, providing additional information for quality control decisions.
Aivaro AI Feature Detection offers a ready-to-train base model, requiring only five to ten images, minimizing the effort needed to develop and train AI models, enabling rapid deployment. Inspection processes can be standardized and scaled across users, workstations, and production lines, reducing inspection time and operational costs. AI-supported onboarding makes it easy to bring new users up to speed.
This solution enables manufacturers to maintain full control of inspection decisions while using AI models directly on the production floor. Running on standard hardware and processing data locally on-site, it eliminates the need for cloud connectivity and expensive hardware. The solution is compatible with a wide range of Leica solutions.
Aivaro AI Feature Detection supports diverse manufacturing environments, including electronics, battery production, transportation, medical devices, and chemistry and polymer processing, helping companies to increase efficiency and make reliable decisions during inspection.
