Built for standards-aware measurement, not black-box grading

ConductVision is designed to support the methods your lab already cites. We use careful claim wording: supported workflows, not certified compliance, until validated on your images.

Textile pilling analysis for fabric R&D and QC

Upload fabric surface images, estimate an ISO-style pilling grade, review the regions that drove the call, and compare fiber, yarn, weave, and finishing parameters. ConductVision reports pill density, grade confidence, heatmap overlays, and SHAP explanations for production-factor review — the workflow where ConductVision already has unusually specific proof.

  • ISO 1–5 grade suggestion
  • Pilling density (pills/cm²)
  • Grad-CAM heatmap overlay
  • SHAP feature attribution
  • Stage contributions: fiber, yarn, weave, finishing
  • Batch comparison by lot, supplier, wash & abrasion cycle

Ten primitives behind every page

Every application is the same reusable engine, exposed under the name your field uses. Calibrate, detect, measure, review, export — then compare across lots and time points.

Scale calibration

Set real units from a bar or known dimension.

Object detection

Locate every object of interest in the field.

Semantic segmentation

Label each pixel by class: phase, pore, tissue.

Instance segmentation

Separate touching objects into countable instances.

Boundary tracing

Trace grain, cell, and region outlines precisely.

Crack & line detection

Follow cracks, fibers, and thin linear features.

Texture classification

Score surface texture, domains, and patterns.

Statistical export

Distributions and summaries, publication-ready.

Batch & lot comparison

Compare across cohorts, lots, and time points.

Overlay review

Inspect and adjust every result on the image.

Validated on your image type, not a global accuracy number

Every high-stakes workflow needs validation on your samples. ConductVision supports locked protocols, reviewed overlays, and held-out validation sets so teams can document exactly how each measurement was produced — compared against expert manual measurements, held out by material family, supplier, microscope, and lighting, and labelled clearly when a protocol is still a custom or research workflow.

Send a sample image and a measurement goal

We will show the closest ConductVision workflow and identify what needs custom validation for your images.
