Barcelona, 17 June, 2020. The first ever virtual 18th EMVA Business Conference on 26 June provides a mix of top-notch presentation topics and speakers together with the long missed possibility to directly interact with other conference participants.
“As a reaction to the social distancing measures the EMVA has chosen to not simply cancel the 2020 EMVA Business Conference originally planned to take place in Sofia, Bulgaria, but hold it as virtual edition. In this first ever online format of the conference we offer presentations at the usual high level of the EMVA Business Conference format as well as webinar Q&A features”, explains EMVA General Manager Thomas Lübkemeier and adds: “What makes this virtual conference a truly unique event is the additional opportunity for all participants to book individual bilateral face-to-face video networking meetings during the conference breaks. Not only are these meetings part of the DNA of each physical EMVA Business Conference; but we are especially happy to provide that format online this year since such individual face-to-face meeting opportunities have become so rare in the Covid-19 shutdown.”
Diverse conference program
The conference program dives deep into currently discussed machine vision topics. The presentations are titled “New Approaches to 3D vision”; “Vision-based Autonomous Navigation”; “Artificial Intelligence Learning at the Edge — Application to Integration-Free Quality Control”; “Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence for Automated Visual Inspection”; and “Photonics & Machine Vision”. This lecture block is complemented by an EMVA outlook 2020/2021 and an EMVA “Vision Standards Executive Summary”.
In addition to that, anther speech refers indirectly to the challenges posted in Covid-19 talking about “B2B Selling in Remote Mode”; and the closing keynote addresses the socio-economic topic “Trust in the Age of Fake Realities – Why the Virtual Economy needs more Common Sense”.
