FORESIGHT STEREO® for Trading Card Surface Observation: Seeing the "Color" and "Shape" of Glossy Surfaces Separately
Glossy and holographic trading cards are difficult subjects: the printed artwork overlaps with surface reflections, making shallow dents and scratches hard to distinguish. Our 3D imaging technology FORESIGHT STEREO® can also be used to observe the surface of such cards.
What Happens to an Inspection AI When NG Images Slip into Training Data Meant to Be Good-Only?
Most visual inspection AI methods assume the training data is all good parts, yet on real floors a few defective images can slip into the training folder. We look at how SoftPatch (NeurIPS 2022) examines how far a model breaks when that assumption fails, and how to prevent it.
What Is Not Captured Cannot Be Detected: Our CTO Lectures at JSME Annual Meeting Workshop W252
On September 7, 2026, our CTO Dr. Seong-Hun Choe gave an invited lecture at workshop W252 of the 2026 Annual Meeting of The Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers (JSME), held at the Tokai University Shonan Campus. This article shares the lecture content, figures and measured values, and the slides are available for free download.
"99% on MVTec AD" Cannot Choose a Method: AUROC of 29 Industrial Anomaly Detection Methods Compared with Their Settings
When choosing an industrial anomaly detection method, many engineers look first at benchmark AUROC values, yet the leading methods crowd into the 99% range and the same metric name hides different settings. We share the four elements to check when reading AUROC, based on values of 29 methods collected from original papers and public benchmarks.
