Industrial Image Processing AI

Combine thresholds, contours, OCR, and trained models in one pipeline, test it on your own images, and deploy it to the edge, free.

Industrial Image Processing AI, Built Your Way

  • Classic CV and Models in One Pipeline

    Thresholding, contours, template matching, OCR, barcodes, and RF-DETR detection run as blocks in one Roboflow Workflow, with Custom Python blocks for your own logic.

  • From First Image to Running Model

    Label your images, train in the cloud, and test the model on your own frames in the browser before you write any deployment code.

  • Deploy Anywhere, Run Everywhere

    Run it on a CPU, NVIDIA GPU, or Jetson with inference server start, or call it over a hosted API.

  • Thresholding & Contour Analysis
  • Template Matching
  • OCR on Lot Codes & Labels
  • Barcode & QR Reading
  • Defect Detection with RF-DETR
  • Image Tiling for Small Defects

Build Every Inspection Step, from First Image to Edge Deployment

Industrial image processing used to mean choosing between hand-tuned rules and a deep learning project. With Roboflow you build both in one place: classic image processing steps, OCR and barcode reading, and models trained on your own parts, chained together in a Workflow you can test on real images and deploy to the line.

Process the image:

  • Use Workflows' classical computer vision blocks (opens in a new tab) for blurring, thresholding, contour detection, template matching, and size measurement.
  • Tile large, high-resolution frames with the Image Slicer block so small defects stay visible to the model.
  • Read lot codes, labels, barcodes, and QR codes with the OCR, Barcode Detection, and QR Code Detection blocks.

Train the model:

Deploy and connect:

  • Run your Workflow locally with pip install inference-cli && inference server start, which picks the right build for CPU, NVIDIA GPU, or Jetson (run a model locally (opens in a new tab)).
  • Send results to your own API with the Webhook Sink block, or call your model over the hosted API.
  • Move the same Workflow to an edge device at the line when you are ready, without rewriting it.

Start building today. Your first pipeline is a few blocks away.

Frequently asked questions

Is it free to start?

Yes. The Free Tier is $0 and includes 10 credits a month, enough to train about 30 models or run 80,000 inferences, with no credit card required.

Do I need machine learning experience?

No. You label images and train in the browser, and build pipelines by connecting blocks. If you do write code, you can add your own logic with Custom Python blocks.

Can I combine classic image processing with deep learning?

Yes. Classical computer vision blocks, OCR, barcode reading, and trained models all run in the same Workflow, so you can threshold and measure where rules work and use a model where they do not.

Where does it run?

On your own CPU, NVIDIA GPU, or Jetson with Roboflow Inference, or over the hosted API. The same Workflow runs in both places.
