Covision Quality joins NVIDIA Metropolis Partner Program

Visual inspection software provider Covision Quality has joined NVIDIA Metropolis, a partner program focused on enabling vision AI solutions for increased operational efficiency and safety across industries.

A spin-off of Covision Lab, Covision Quality’s visual inspection software builds on unsupervised machine learning. With just an hour of training, on average, this tool can minimize pseudo-scrap rates, a KPI in manufacturing, by up to 90%.

Additionally, workstations deployed at customer sites leverage NVIDIA RTX A5000 GPU-accelerated computing, enabling the software to process images, inspect components, and communicate decisions to a programmable logic controller (PLC) in real-time.

As an NVIDIA Metropolis member, Covision Quality has the added advantage of gaining early access to NVIDIA platform updates to further enhance and augment AI application development.

“Joining NVIDIA Metropolis marks yet another milestone in our company’s young history and in our relationship with NVIDIA, which started with our company joining the NVIDIA Inception program last year,” said Franz Tschimben, CEO of Covision Quality.

“It is a testament to the great work the team is doing in providing a scalable visual inspection software product to our customers, drastically reducing ‘time to deployment’ of visual inspection systems and ‘pseudo scrap rates’.”

“We expect that NVIDIA Metropolis, which sits at the heart of many developments that are happening in the industry today, will give us a boost in our go-to-market efforts and support us in connecting to customers and system integrators,” added Tschimben.
