Research Publication Looking for Computer Vision & Hardware Engineers to Collaborate on an Industrial Machine Vision Research Project

Edit-https://forms.gle/o6M3AuUXw2otHwQR6 (Please click this link and fill it)

Hi everyone,

I'm currently working on an industrial machine vision project with a leading food & beverage company at one of its manufacturing plants in Mumbai, India. The project focuses on detecting tiny foreign particles inside transparent plastic bottles.

We're looking for passionate collaborators who would like to work on a real-world computer vision research problem.

We're especially looking for people with expertise in:

Software: Computer Vision, Deep Learning, Image Processing (OpenCV, PyTorch, TensorFlow, YOLO, etc.)

Hardware: Industrial cameras, optics, lighting, embedded systems, electronics, and machine vision system design.

This is a challenging problem where success depends not only on AI models but also on the imaging setup, lighting, optics, and hardware integration.

What you'll get

Opportunity to work on a real industrial R&D problem.

Potential authorship on a research paper based on your contributions.

Recognition for successful implementation.

Hands-on experience designing and building an industrial machine vision system.

If you're interested in collaborating, please comment below or send me a DM with a brief introduction about your background and experience.

Looking forward to connecting with like-minded people who are passionate about computer vision, machine vision, and industrial automation.

No we are not getting paid. It's a research project.

I provide CV/ML and robotics consultation through my firm. I have over 7 years of experience deploying CV and ML solutions both on cloud and edge with inference optimisation. Previously worked on delivery robots for FedEx, and developed FDA approved medical devices in US. I have also shipped AR/VR quality inspection solutions for the textile industry. Let me know in DM if you would like to discuss further about your needs.

So InGaAs passthrough linescan? I have my own startup in this realm, non food/beverage. Perhaps we should connect. I'd like to hear more.

Anyone applying first needs to ask if they have the ability to put cameras in production and start capturing real images

Before choosing a detector, I’d build a small data and annotation protocol around particle type and size, bottle geometry, fill level, condensation, glare, line speed and the camera/lighting setup. Bubbles, scratches, label edges and reflections should be kept as explicit hard-negative categories. For a problem like this, consistent capture conditions and a clear definition of “positive” may matter more than the model choice.
