EMVA’s annual two-day event, where machine vision industry and academic research meet to learn from each other, get an understanding of the newest research results, of open problems from applications, learn about new and emerging application fields, and to discuss new research cooperation between industry and academics.

The upcoming forum will take place Thursday & Friday, October 16 – 17, 2025, in Fürth, Germany.
EMVA’s local partner hosting the event is the Fraunhofer IIS – Development Center X-ray Technology EZRT.

Focal Topic:

Imaging the Invisible

A major advantage of machine vision is that a variety of sensory sources can be used. Image processing methods can be applied to images – regardless of how they were generated. Consequently, machine vision is not dependent on images as we know them as humans. Extensions of human perception are possible in many ways: spectrally by image acquisition, e.g. in the ultraviolet, infrared or terahertz range of electromagnetic waves, as well as by extending the color channels in multi- and hyperspectral images, by using polarization or temporally by using high-speed imaging. Images can also be created using other recording modalities, as is the case with thermography and acoustic imaging.
The European Machine Vision Forum 2025 will focus on methods, systems and applications based on such images of the “invisible”. Of particular interest here are sensor systems and methods for acquiring image data as well as procedures for evaluating them.

The event will include invited plenary talks, poster presentations, and software demonstrations.

Still opportunities available to become exhibitor at the forum accompanying table-tops.
