Material Handling and Packaging

Complex AI inspection in manufacturing isn't new — Cognex has been solving hard applications for years with VisionPro Deep Learning on PC hardware. What's changed is where that capability can live. In this interview, Cognex Product Manager traces the journey from PC-based deep learning to fully embedded AI ecosystems — covering what Edge AI on the In-Sight 3900 makes accessible, why the IS6900 brings proven advanced AI capability to the factory floor without the PC overhead, and how OneVision ties model development, validation, and global deployment into a single managed platform. For engineers who've lived with the integration and maintenance burden of PC-based vision systems, this is the conversation about what's now possible without those tradeoffs
