When considering an image processing system using Jetson, many people may have the following concerns.
[Two concerns frequently asked by customers]
1. I don't know what kind of development tools should be used to create and implement a program that can run on Jetson
2. I don't know the specifications of Ubuntu, software installation is troublesome, and I want to start verification immediately, but it's hard to get started
Therefore, this time, we would like to introduce a kitting set that combines HALCON, an image processing library, a Baslar camera, and an edge terminal equipped with NVIDIA Jetson™.
This set will be delivered with the OS and software already installed. Therefore, troublesome installation work is not required, and deep learning operation verification and image processing development using HALCON can be performed immediately. In addition, the required performance and specifications differ depending on the application, so we have prepared two types of kits.
Let me introduce you briefly.
What is HALCON?
The image processing library HALCON is a pioneering tool that allows you to build an efficient image processing system by combining 2,000 library operators. The created script type program can be automatically converted to Visual C++, Visual Basic or Visual C# code, and can be easily incorporated into the customer's image processing system. HALCON is currently used in tens of thousands of systems in Japan alone, demonstrating the high reliability of the HALCON library.

Application example of HALCON
Case 1: Acceptance/rejection judgment of blood collection tube caps
Product quality and traceability have been improved by using deep learning to classify defects that are difficult to quantify, such as breakage and peeling of barcode stickers, and by combining this with code recognition functions.
Case 2: License plate recognition
Recognizing objects outdoors is extremely difficult because the appearance of objects changes depending on the weather and time of day, but we have combined rule-based image processing and deep learning to build flexible logic.
What are the advantages of combining HALCON and Jetson?
The combination of HALCON and Jetson is the optimal solution that enables edge AI to be implemented flexibly.
In order to realize image edge AI, it is essential to have an image processing library, affinity with your own system, and edge computing that can perform high-speed calculations.
The kit introduced this time achieves flexible image edge AI that meets customer needs by combining HALCON, an image processing library that can automatically convert code, and NVIDIA Jetson, which specializes in parallel computing technology. can. In addition, image processing algorithms built on Windows, Linux, etc. can be easily deployed on Jetson and their operation can be evaluated.
2 types of validated sets are available
HALCON, an image processing library used in tens of thousands of systems in Japan, and a Basler camera are kitted to an edge terminal equipped with NVIDIA Jetson.
There is no need for the customer to install any OS or software. After purchase, you can immediately start operation verification of image processing deep learning using HALCON and operation verification of image processing development application.
