Abstract
This invention overcomes disadvantages of the prior art by providing a vision system and method of use, and graphical user interface (GUI), which employs a camera assembly having an on-board processor of low to modest processing power. At least one vision system tool analyzes image data, and generates results therefrom, based upon a deep learning process. A training process provides training image data to a processor remote from the on-board processor to cause generation of the vision system tool therefrom, and provides a stored version of the vision system tool for runtime operation on the on-board processor. The GUI allows manipulation of thresholds applicable to the vision system tool and refinement of training of the vision system tool by the training process. A scoring process allows unlabeled images from a set of acquired and/or stored images to be selected automatically for labelling as training images using a computed confidence score.
