See laser projection paired with AI-powered inspection in action with Virtek Vision’s (Waterloo, Ontario, Canada) Iris Ai composite inspection system, which is designed to elevate quality control, reduce rework and streamline production in aerospace, automotive and other high-precision industries.

Iris Ai combines advanced edge-processing AI cameras with laser projection to detect what the human eye might miss such as backing paper and foreign object debris (FOD) in real time, without the need for additional programming. The system adapts to lighting and environmental changes, ensuring consistent, reliable inspections across complex parts and large surfaces.

New this year is Results Projection, a feature that visually displays inspection results directly onto the part using laser projection. This innovation enables operators to instantly see where FOD or other anomalies are detected, enabling faster corrective action and reducing downtime. 

Key features behind Iris Ai include:

• AI-driven FOD detection in under 3 sec
• Live, real-time feedback to operators
• Results Projection directs users instantly to detection locations
• Automated image capture and full traceability by part serial number
• Seamless API integration with existing software for real-time production insights
• Scalable camera options for narrow and wide fields of view.

Using Iris Ai, every ply, orientation and timestamp is digitally recorded, creating a comprehensive audit trail that supports continuous improvement and compliance. Backed by Virtek’s customer support and global service network, Iris Ai is a partner in industry’s digital transformation journey.
