Printed Colors Disappear, Leaving Only the Embossing: Observing the 3D Surface of a License Plate with TR-300
Color and relief on a product surface look mixed to the human eye. We observed a license plate embossed with "YOKOSUKA" in 3D with TR-300: the printed colors disappear and only the physical embossed pattern rises.
Catching Every Crack: How E3 ENGINE® Detects Concrete Surface Defects with 99.6% Accuracy
Hairline cracks running across a bridge deck, a tunnel wall, or a concrete panel are among the hardest defects […]
Visualizing Fine Flaws on Mirror Surfaces: TR-300 Clearly Reveals Polishing Marks on a 6-Inch Silicon Wafer
A surface polished smooth as a mirror looks beautiful. In visual inspection, however, this mirror surface is one of the toughest subjects: it reflects the illumination straight back, so the camera sees the light itself and fine surface flaws are buried in the reflection.

Transforming Scratch Inspection of Glossy Emblems: A FORESIGHT STEREO Case Study
An automobile emblem is the 'face' of the car, and even a slight scratch can damage the brand image. Yet the strong reflections of a mirror-finished glossy surface make scratches hard to detect correctly with conventional general lighting and cameras.
[Tech Blog] SimpleNet: Four Remarkable Ideas That Changed Anomaly Detection
In manufacturing quality control, AI anomaly detection is becoming an essential technology. Yet missing even a single unpredictable, minute defect, such as a hairline scratch, a barely visible color unevenness or a slight misalignment of a part, is not acceptable.
