KESTRELEYE

Beyond the limits of
standard vision software.

We engineer tailored computer vision solutions for complex cases standard tools can’t handle.

Our Solutions

  • Vega

    industrial imaging software

    Vega processes your image data, evaluates it and delivers exactly the result you need — a report, a sorting signal, an alarm, etc.

    • Decisions right on time
      short, predictable latencies your process can rely on
    • Plugs right into your process
      works with your cameras, PLC and control system
    • Tailored to your task
      AI and classic algorithms, combined in a pipeline built for your application
    • Sees what the eye can’t
      hyperspectral and 3D sensors tell apart what looks the same
    • Full line speed on lean hardware
      high throughput on standard hardware
  • Phoenix

    AI model training

    Phoenix turns your images into neural network models. Just select your use case — the rest is handled automatically.

    • Beyond off-the-shelf AI
      Sort, measure, detect and segment, even on hyperspectral data
    • Your data stays yours
      On-premises or in the cloud: your data is not used for any other purposes
    • Evidence for your quality management
      A detailed report and training history for every model
    • From images to model without an AI team
      Data management, training and testing run automatically
    • Our models know, when they don‘t know
      Unknown images are flagged instead of being forced into a known class
  • Custom Software

    Software built around your task

    Not every task is covered by what exists. When something is missing, we build it for you.

    • Built for your exact process
      whether it’s a particular evaluation, a machine interface, or a specific measurement
    • Custom models for your task
      AI architectures tailored to your specific requirements
    • Faster to results
      built on production-proven software, not from scratch
    • Certainty before you commit
      feasibility checked on your images, new industries welcome
    • An investment that lasts
      your extension is maintained with every release

Our Strengths

33 m/sProduction Speed
i

Our software runs on 50 different lines worldwide at this speed.

Our software has a proven track record on fast production lines.
With 120 km/h about 1.5 times faster than the world's fastest elevator.

Benchmark Details:

  • Industrial PC (AMD Ryzen 5 7600X, 32 GB RAM, NVIDIA RTX A4000)
  • 10mm average object size
  • Image acquisition takes an additional 3ms

From the beginning of image processing to the final decision.
100 times faster than the blink of an eye.

Products

Vega

industrial imaging software

Vega tailors to your imaging challenges, no matter how complex.

Vega Bundles

Vega bundles cover sorting, continuous monitoring, and triggered inspection. For anything else, we prepare a customer-tailored bundle.

  • Vega Sort — Sort in under a millisecond — Vega Sort delivers the ejection signal per object in time, with latencies below one millisecond. Where colour alone isn’t enough — similar materials, contamination, ripeness, moisture — hyperspectral data tells them apart.
  • Vega Guard — Catch what you didn’t know to look for — Vega Guard monitors running processes without a trigger, whether it’s a continuous material stream, changing scenes or high data rates. It flags every deviation, from known defects to things never seen before.
  • Vega Inspect — Handle the products others can’t — Vega Inspect checks single parts on a trigger: present or missing, correct or faulty, in tolerance or not. Customers often come to us with complex cases that couldn’t be solved anywhere else.
  • Your task isn’t listed? We’ll build your Vega Flex bundle — Every existing software function can be combined into a custom bundle — with no development work on our side.

Examples
