Shape Defects 2D Can’t Catch: When 3D+AI Inspection Is the Answer
SICK's Nova combines deep learning with 3D height-map data to catch shape defects 2D inspection misses, with on-device retraining from a handful of samples.

Overdetection vs. Missed Detection — Which One Costs More?
Overdetection and missed detection can't both be driven to zero -- a look at how threshold cost asymmetry, and KLA's nuisance-filtering patent, shape the trade-off.

Deep Learning vs. Rule-Based Algorithms: When to Use Which
A practical comparison of rule-based vision algorithms and deep learning, with clear criteria for which fits which inspection condition -- and why splitting roles beats picking one.
