Atlas optimizes cameras at scale for vision system design teams while maximizing computer vision accuracy and image quality.

Key Points: 
  • Atlas optimizes cameras at scale for vision system design teams while maximizing computer vision accuracy and image quality.
  • However, camera development currently relies on expert imaging teams or external image quality service companies to manually tune camera architectures.
  • As such, this process does not ensure that the camera provides the optimal output for image quality or computer vision applications.
  • Atlas in the cloud and expanded ISP ecosystem support enables project scalability, optimal image quality and computer vision results, and lower program cost and schedule risks," said Allan Benchetrit, CEO of Algolux.
