Fraunhofer-Alliance Vision – A research network for industrial quality insurance
Automatic image processing and machine vision are basic activities of the Vision institutes within the Fraunhofer Gesellschaft. The main goal of the Fraunhofer Vision Alliance is the development of new or improved devices for industrial inspection. Video cameras, infrared cameras as well as x-ray cameras are used for imaging. Turn key solutions including the complete handling system can be provided by request. The institutes involved with the Alliance exchange knowledge and experience and cooperate within the scope of projects. A network of companies and universities complete these abilities.
The competencies of Fraunhofer Vision:
- Inspection and characterization of surfaces
- Analysis of microstructures
- Systems for optical 3-D-measuring
- Heat flux thermography and x-ray techniques for invisible defects
- X-ray tomography (CT) for analysis and measurement of hidden structures
- Terahertz tomography
Workshops with Practical Training:
It is often not easy to decide whether a new technology is already suited for your own applications. Two day workshops with practical training can help clarifying this. In addition to the conveyance of basic theoretical principles and the introduction of example solutions, our workshops offer the opportunity to inspect your own sample parts in the practical part and to test the proffered methods in small groups. So far, workshops about the following topics are established (to be held only in German):
- Optical 3-D measuring
- Heat flux thermography for the analysis of invisible defects
- Inspection and characterization of surfaces

Manual of industrial image processing - quality assurance in practice (German, 510 pages):
The book gives an overview of industrial quality assurance by means of automatic image processing. It can be used for helping both decision makers and users.
Guideline series of Fraunhofer Vision:
Knowing about the possibilities and limitations of the newest technologies is an important prerequisite for the successful implementation of image processing in production. Our guideline series describes the possibilities of modern image processing as simple and concrete as possible in order to facilitate access to the topic for potential users. Each year, we release a new volume about a relevant topic.
