What to agree with computer vision developers

An annotation contract

Define classes, bounding-box or mask rules, and how to label partially visible objects, ambiguous defects and empty frames. Include approved examples and a process for resolving annotator disagreement. Retain image provenance and dataset versions so a corrected label can be traced through training and evaluation. Split related video frames, production batches or camera sessions together; nearly identical images in both training and evaluation can hide generalization errors.

An acceptance report tied to the workflow

Agree the operating threshold and report missed detections and false alarms by class and condition. Include darkness, glare, occlusion, motion blur and camera movement where relevant. For OCR, separate text recognition errors from incorrect extraction of a business field. For video analytics, count duplicated or missed events as well as frame-level detections. Measure the full time from capture to a usable result, including decoding, queues, preprocessing and downstream calls.

A deployment and recovery contract

Specify input resolution, frame rate, supported devices, output coordinates, class identifiers and API error behavior. Test the exported model on the actual runtime and hardware. Compare output quality after quantization or another optimization; a smaller model does not establish an acceptable error rate or faster end-to-end processing. The ONNX Runtime quantization guide explains calibration and accuracy debugging.

Define behavior for a disconnected camera, dropped frames, resource exhaustion and an unavailable downstream system. Handover should include the model and dataset versions, evaluation report, deployment configuration, update procedure and rollback instructions. Assign an owner for drift review and decide which camera or product changes require a new evaluation.

Example Manufacturing Pilot

Plan a Visual Inspection Workflow

This illustrative workflow is a planning example. It is not a measured customer result. Begin with one inspection station and a defined set of defects rather than automating every production line at once.

Data and Evaluation

  • • Collect images across shifts, lighting conditions and part variants.
  • • Have inspectors label defects and resolve ambiguous examples.
  • • Hold out later production batches to test generalization.
  • • Report missed defects and false alarms for each defect category.

Deployment and Acceptance

  • • Measure the full capture-to-decision latency at line speed.
  • • Run in observation mode before enabling downstream actions.
  • • Route uncertain results to an inspector and keep a manual fallback.
  • • Agree acceptance thresholds, operating costs and rollback criteria before launch.

Review false rejects, reinspection time and escaped defects alongside model metrics. A useful pilot must improve the inspection process under real operating conditions. Preserve the evaluation dataset, model version and configuration so results can be reproduced after an update.

Frequently Asked Questions

What computer vision tasks can TensorBlue build for us?

Object detection, instance and semantic segmentation, OCR / document understanding, defect detection, multi-camera tracking, pose estimation, and vision-language models (CLIP, BLIP-2, GPT-4V) for retrieval and product search.

Will the vision model run on-device or in the cloud?

Both. We ship cloud inference for high-throughput batch workloads and edge inference (Jetson, Coral, iOS Core ML, Android NNAPI) when latency, privacy, or offline operation matter.

How much labeled data do we need?

With modern transfer learning and synthetic augmentation, focused detectors can reach production-grade accuracy with 1–5K labeled examples per class. We also handle the labeling pipeline (active learning, human-in-the-loop) when needed.
