MVTec further expands HALCON with new deep learning capabilities

MVTec Software GmbH, a leading international machine vision software provider, will release version 23.05 of its standard machine vision software HALCON on May 23, 2023. The focus of the new version is deep learning methods. The main feature is Deep Counting, a deep learning-based method that allows for stable and reliable counting of large numbers of objects. In addition, the new HALCON version incorporates improvements to the deep learning technology 3D gripper point detection as well as Deep OCR training. With HALCON 23.05, the underlying deep learning networks, which have been pre-trained with industry-relevant images for users’ own applications, can now be further optimized. This makes the recognition rate of Deep OCR applications more stable and also helps applications using 3D gripper point detection technology to detect suitable gripping surfaces more reliably. In addition, there are many other beneficial improvements, for example, it is now easier to integrate external code into HALCON.

“We have seen a significant increase in customer interest in integrating deep learning methods into their own solutions. This is what guided us when developing the new HALCON version, and the result is new deep learning technologies and further developments that help customers achieve even more precise results,” explains Jan Grötner, Product Manager for HALCON at MVTec.

Deep Counting

Starting with HALCON 23.05, customers can use the “Deep Counting” function, which allows fast and reliable counting and position detection of a large number of objects. This deep learning-based technology has clear advantages over existing machine vision methods: The function can be deployed very quickly, because only a few objects need to be labeled and trained, and both steps can be easily done in HALCON. The technology provides reliable results even for objects made of highly reflective amorphous materials. Deep Counting allows a large number of objects to be counted, such as glass bottles, tree trunks, or food products.

Training of Deep OCR

Deep OCR reads text very stably and is not even affected by the orientation and font. This technology first detects the relevant text in the image and then reads it. With HALCON 23.05, it is now also possible to fine-tune the text detection by retraining the pre-trained network with application-specific images. This produces more stable results and opens up new possibilities. For example: detecting text in arbitrary print types or previously unseen character types, and improving reading in low-contrast, noisy environments.

Training for 3D gripper point detection

The 3D gripper point detection reliably detects surfaces on any object that are suitable for gripping with suction. In HALCON 23.05, it is now possible to retrain the pre-trained model with your own application-specific image data. This results in a more stable recognition of grippable surfaces. The necessary annotations can be done easily and efficiently with the MVTec Deep Learning Tool.

Easy extension interface

With the help of HALCON extension packages, external programming languages ​​can be integrated. The integration of external code in HALCON 23.05 is even easier. With the new Easy Extensions Interface, users can now use their own functions written in .NET code in HDevelop and HDevEngine in just a few steps. Even data types and HALCON operators known from the HALCON/.NET language interface can be used. Customer benefit: HALCON can now cover functions that go beyond pure image processing. This increases HALCON’s flexibility and application possibilities.

ABB technology ensures safe and stable operation of power distribution facilities in Indonesia’s Jakarta-Bandung high-speed railway

ABB solutions ensure the stability of power distribution in railway infrastructure and help promote connectivity in the ASEAN region

ABB electrical products meet the harsh tropical climate characteristics, and verifiable application examples win the trust of users

The Jakarta-Bandung High-Speed ​​Railway, connecting the Indonesian capital of Jakarta and the fourth largest city of Bandung, is a landmark project of the “Belt and Road” construction and the pragmatic cooperation between China and India. It is 142 kilometers long and has a maximum design speed of 350 kilometers per hour. It is expected to be completed and opened to traffic in June 2023. After completion, the travel time between the two places will be shortened from the current more than 3 hours to 40 minutes.

Indonesia has a typical tropical rainforest climate, with high temperatures and heavy rains all year round and a humid and hot environment. In order to adapt to these complex and humid climate characteristics and ensure the safe operation of power distribution equipment, the “four electricity” integrated intelligent distribution cabinet of the Jakarta-Bandung High-Speed ​​Railway strictly selects power distribution equipment in accordance with the relevant standards and technical requirements of the countries along the “Belt and Road”. “Four electricity” is the general term for communication, signal, power and electric traction power supply in high-speed railway construction. It is the “central brain” and source of power for the entire high-speed railway.

Based on the cooperation between ABB and its partner Wuhan Xigao Electric Co., Ltd., after rigorous multiple rounds of technical bidding, the project finally selected ABB’s intelligent power distribution solution to ensure the continuity of power supply along the high-speed railway and the safe and stable operation of the electrical system. The solution covers low-voltage components such as Emax 2 air circuit breakers, Tmax molded case circuit breakers, dual power transfer switches, S200 miniature circuit breakers, AX contactors, etc., providing overload, short circuit, ground fault and indirect contact protection for the project’s low-voltage distribution network.

Since the project belongs to the “Belt and Road” project, ABB, in order to relieve customers’ concerns about additional on-site power distribution selective coordination and other issues, supports the construction of higher-performance electrical systems through the selection of ABB DOCWIN design software, and provides customers with selective coordination tripping curve instructions to avoid the safety hazards of over-tripping, thereby solving the electrical problems that may be encountered in the rail transit system.

ABB Electrical China Vice President Yang Rong said that ABB has verifiable advantages in global operation network, international and domestic project engineering experience, and digital capabilities of electrical equipment. It can connect with enterprises in the fields of power, transportation, industry and infrastructure for a wide range of projects, helping partners to improve their market competitiveness when undertaking overseas projects, and improve the distribution stability and energy efficiency of users. With the in-depth implementation of China’s “Belt and Road” initiative, it is hoped that ABB can work with more partners to achieve resource sharing and jointly develop more broad markets along the route.

As one of the first companies to actively explore business opportunities in the “Belt and Road”, ABB has jointly developed domestic and foreign markets with Chinese companies. In recent years, ABB has cooperated with 400 Chinese companies in more than 70 countries and regions along the “Belt and Road”, providing advanced technologies and solutions for related projects, such as the Myanmar Dandomiao cement production line undertaken by Sinoma International, Sinopec’s petroleum polypropylene project in Thailand, and Tangshan Bus’s No. 2 light rail project in Izmir, Turkey.

In the rail transit industry, ABB actively participates in rail transit construction in various parts of China, providing solid and reliable power guarantees for AC/DC substations, passenger station buildings, control and signaling equipment, tunnels, and locomotives, and promoting inter-provincial and inter-city connectivity. Successful projects include the Beijing-Shanghai High-Speed ​​Railway, the Qinghai-Tibet Railway, and many rail transit projects in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Changsha and other places.

“The application of the new generation of OleflexTM PDH and HPO technology in the PDH unit project of Sultan Petrochemical reflects the trust and recognition of Honeywell by its partners.” Shi Wencai, Vice President and General Manager of Honeywell UOP China, said, “We are very pleased to see that Honeywell’s mature technology helps Sultan achieve more efficient and lower-carbon propylene production in the PDH unit, meet the growing demand for high-quality propylene in the Chinese market, and help transform and upgrade China’s manufacturing industry.”

Honeywell UOP OleflexTM PDH technology converts propane into propylene through catalytic dehydrogenation. The technology is based on a platinum-containing catalyst system with alumina as the carrier, which has the characteristics of low energy consumption and low emissions, can minimize the impact on the environment, help customers improve operational flexibility, operation rate and reliability, and has obvious energy consumption, environmental and cost advantages. Compared with similar technologies, Honeywell UOP’s OleflexTM technology has lower cash production costs, higher return on investment, and the overall process technology is more low-carbon and environmentally friendly, with carbon emissions reduced by 15%~35%.

In addition to using advanced OleflexTM PDH and HPO technologies, Honeywell also cooperated deeply with Sailboat Petrochemical in the areas of smart factories and advanced control, providing digital technologies such as UOP Connected interconnection services, process safety alarm management system, and carbon emission monitoring of PDH units to ensure long-term safety and optimized operation of the unit, achieve efficient management and excellent operation, and help Sailboat Petrochemical become a model of smart factories in the PDH industry.

The project leader of Sailboat Petrochemical said that through in-depth cooperation with Honeywell in process technology and intelligent technology, Sailboat Petrochemical has achieved further intelligent production and digital operation. Sailboat Petrochemical will work with Honeywell to give full play to the advantages of both parties, meet the growing demand for propylene production, and use innovative technologies to achieve low-carbon production, contributing to sustainable development and China’s “dual carbon” goals.

Currently, the scale of Sailboat Petrochemical’s OleflexTM HPO PDH unit ranks among the top in the industry, and its main production and operation indicators are better than other OleflexTM PDH units of the same scale. The first phase of the Sailboat project also uses Honeywell UOP’s advanced MTO light olefin production technology. The successful start-up and long-term stable operation of the PDH unit means that Sailboat Petrochemical has achieved complementary advantages of methanol to olefins and propane dehydrogenation to propylene in terms of obtaining propylene raw materials. It can flexibly adjust the production capacity of MTO and PDH units according to the market conditions of methanol and propane to achieve cost reduction and efficiency improvement.

Honeywell has a history of more than 100 years in the field of sustainable development. About 60% of the company’s new product research and development is based on improving customers’ environmental performance and social benefits. In China, Honeywell is also committed to fulfilling the company’s commitment to sustainable development and helping China’s sustainable development goals of striving to peak carbon dioxide emissions before 2030 and achieving carbon neutrality before 2060. Honeywell’s core business is in line with China’s market needs. The company and its Chinese partners work together to promote the sustainable development of many industries and help achieve a more low-carbon, efficient, safe and healthy sustainable future.

Singapore Airlines to add first class, revamp cabins on longest flights

Singapore Airlines plans to add four-seat first-class cabins to Airbus planes used on its longest routes to attract high-spending travelers on flights lasting up to 17 hours.

The airline will install the new seats on seven Airbus A350-900 URLs (ultra-long-range aircraft), which are used for long-haul flights, including the longest flights between New York and Singapore. The company will also revamp the cabins of long-haul Airbus planes with new business-class seats, which may include suites with sliding doors, a design increasingly favored by airlines to offer privacy as an onboard perk.

Singapore Airlines said the new first- and business-class seats will come with new in-flight entertainment, but the airline did not reveal further details about the new cabins. They will “push the boundaries of comfort, luxury and modernity,” CEO Goh Choon Peng said in a press release.

Airlines have invested billions of dollars to revamp their premium cabins to attract travelers willing to pay for more space on board. These include international carriers such as Singapore’s jumbo jets, as well as smaller carriers such as JetBlue Airways flying smaller Airbus aircraft, both of which feature suites with sliding doors.

Singapore Airlines’ transformation plan also includes installing new cabins on 34 long-range Airbus A350 aircraft as part of its 1.1 billion Singapore dollar (about $835 million) transformation plan, which is scheduled to enter service in mid-2026. The aircraft will still have 42 business class seats, 24 premium economy seats and 192 standard economy seats, compared with the current configuration of 187 economy seats.

The ultra-long-range aircraft currently only have business and premium economy cabins. After the new cabin design with first class is installed, the total number of business class seats will increase from 67 to 70, and premium economy seats will increase from the current 94 to 58, according to the airline’s website.

Most U.S. airlines have eliminated long-haul first class or are in the process of doing so in favor of larger business-class cabins.

American is retrofitting some Boeing 777s to add a 70-seat business cabin instead of separating first and business class, and will upgrade business-class seats on 777s and Boeing 787 Dreamliners to have sliding doors. Supply chain issues have slowed some of the retrofits as demand for premium seats increases across the industry after the pandemic.

Some airlines, however, plan to keep first class on at least some routes. Lufthansa’s new first-class “suites” will debut on Nov. 9.

Russia tries to stem panic over rouble collapse, central bank forced to intervene

Russian authorities are trying to contain panic sparked by the ruble’s sharp fall this week, with the central bank forced to intervene on Wednesday to support the currency.

The ruble fell to 114 to the dollar on Wednesday, its lowest level since March 2022, when Russia invaded Ukraine.

The Central Bank of Russia (CBR) was forced to intervene on the same day to support the ruble, saying it would suspend foreign purchases in the domestic currency market for the rest of the year “to reduce volatility in financial markets.”

After the intervention, the ruble was trading at 110 to the dollar on Thursday morning.

Russian President Vladimir Putin previously commented that there was no need to panic about the ruble’s depreciation, and that ruble fluctuations were affected by budget payments and seasonal changes.

“I think the situation is under control and there is absolutely no need to panic,” Putin told reporters, according to Russian news agencies.

“As for the fluctuations in the ruble exchange rate, this is related not only to the inflation process, but also to budget payments, to oil prices. There are many seasonal factors,” he added in comments translated by Google.

According to a report by Russian media Google Translate, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov also shrugged off the ruble’s fall, telling reporters on Wednesday that it would not affect ordinary Russians because their salaries are paid in rubles.

People who closely follow Russian geopolitics and macroeconomics say the ruble’s fall means Moscow’s economic situation is deteriorating fast.

Timothy Ash, emerging market strategist at BlueBay Asset Management, described the ruble as “in free fall” and said Russia seemed to be “brewing a real currency crisis.”

“A fall in the ruble means higher inflation, higher central bank policy rates, and lower real GDP growth,” Ash said in emailed comments.

The ruble’s plunge is partly due to a series of new sanctions against Gazprombank announced by the United States last week, as well as soaring inflation in the domestic economy caused by the war.

The central bank has raised interest rates to 21%, but has so far failed to curb sharp price increases, with inflation reaching 8.5% in October, while the prices of basic foods such as butter and potatoes have risen sharply over the past year.

The government blames the high cost of living on sanctions imposed by “unfriendly” countries to distract from Russia’s war with Ukraine, a conflict that has simultaneously created labor and supply shortages, pushing up wages and production costs.

President Vladimir Putin denies “trading butter for guns,” despite rising price pressures amid a sharp increase in defense spending and strengthening domestic weapons production.

The Russian economy has continued to grow during the war, largely thanks to its oil and gas exports to a handful of countries willing to turn a blind eye to the conflict. The International Monetary Fund raised its GDP forecast for Russia in its fall economic outlook, now predicting 3.6% growth in 2024.

But the agency also noted a deceleration, forecasting 1.3% growth in 2025, noting that this reflects “a sharp slowdown in economic growth…as private consumption and investment slow due to less tight labor markets and slower wage growth.”

“A crisis is brewing”

The ruble’s devaluation comes as the Biden administration makes a last-ditch effort to pressure the Kremlin ahead of President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration next January.

The latest round of sanctions, targeting Gazprombank, Russia’s third-largest bank, is particularly painful for Russia because the sanctions prohibit the financial institution from processing any energy-related transactions involving the U.S. financial system. The Treasury also accused the bank of acting as a conduit for Russia to purchase military supplies for its war on Ukraine and to pay Russian soldiers’ salaries.

The White House had previously been cautious about sanctioning the bank because it is also used to receive payments from European buyers of Russian gas — but most European consumers have expected to significantly reduce their purchases of Russian gas since the war began.

“For several months, we have seen sanctions getting tougher and tougher — sanctions on the Moscow Stock Exchange MOEX, secondary sanctions from OFAC, and now sanctions on Gazprombank,” noted Ash of BlueBay Asset Management. “As a result, it has become more difficult for Russia to conduct foreign trade.”

There is no doubt that the war and the measures taken by the West to punish Russia for its aggression are starting to have real effects, economists say.

As the ruble fell further, Joseph Brusuelas, chief economist at RSM US, said Wednesday: “One might conclude that two years of sanctions are beginning to wreak havoc on the Russian economy.”

In comments on X, he said the Russian economy appeared to be “an overheated economy that is struggling to support its war effort and exhausting its resources,” noting that the Russian central bank appeared to have “exhausted extraordinary measures to avoid the apparent end result, which is to stop buying foreign currency starting today.”

“The central bank has stopped buying foreign exchange until the end of the year to curb volatility in financial markets. The ruble has fallen 35% since August as inflation wreaks havoc on the domestic economy, [and] the Kremlin has made a decisive choice between using cannons or butter,” he said, urging observers to “keep an eye on this space for signs of broader economic problems, as inflation is soaring and black market prices tell a completely different story, that of a wartime economy on the brink of collapse.”

Russ officials were quick to downplay the ruble’s sharp devaluation and again blamed the sanctions for the fall.

Russian Economic Development Minister Maxim Reshetnikov told reporters on Wednesday that the dynamics of the ruble exchange rate are not determined by “fundamental factors.”

“The current weakening of the exchange rate has nothing to do with fundamentals, we see a strong trade balance,” he said, according to a Google Translated comment, according to Russian news agency Interfax.

“The main factors contributing to the weakening of the exchange rate are the appreciation of the dollar against world currencies and … the renewed tightening of sanctions against the Russian Federation,” he told reporters in Astana. “In addition, as often happens in such cases, there are currently too many emotional factors on the currency market. Experience shows that after a period of increased volatility, the exchange rate always stabilizes,” he told reporters in Astana.

XUD194 3BHE018137R0001 AC800PEC Controller Tuned for Performance and Efficiency

Powerful hardware for efficient, high-speed

processing

The AC 800PEC combines the floating-point computing performance of the CPU with the flexibility and high-speed capability of a FPGA.

The system is separated into three performance levels covering different cycle times. Control tasks are allocated depending on their speed requirements:

• Very fast tasks down to 25 ns (nanoseconds for FPGA tasks)

• Fast tasks down to 100 μs (microseconds for Matlab/Simulink tasks)

• Slow tasks down to 1 ms (miliseconds forcontrol tasks)

The hardware architecture of the AC 800PEC is an ideal match to the three-level software structure.

To support the short processing cycle times, the AC 800PEC provides a fast I/O system. Depending on the speed of the I/O connection, it is possible to achieve data throughput times below 100 μs, including the time required to read, process,write and transmit the signal Implementation of the AC 800PEC software on the three performance levels provides an exceptional range of control and communication functionality.ABB PP D113 PPD113 3BHE023784R2630 B01-26-111000 - Modbus RTU Communication Module
