FruitfulAI partners with Opto Engineering to combine cutting-edge deep learning software with high-quality machine vision hardware for smarter, turnkey industrial inspection systems.

FruitfulAI is proud to announce a strategic partnership with Opto Engineering, a global leader in high-performance optics and imaging technologies for machine vision.

This collaboration brings together the best of two worlds: Opto Engineering’s extensive know-how in optical imaging systems – renowned, among other things, for its precision lenses, powerful illuminators, and high-performance cameras – and FruitfulAI’s next-generation deep learning software for automated inspection, measurement, and defect detection.

In a manufacturing world that increasingly demands flexibility, accuracy, and speed, traditional rule-based vision systems are no longer enough. FruitfulAI offers an advanced alternative: a deep learning inspection platform that delivers, as a product, what once required extensive consulting and custom projects. With support for tailored ML models and autonomous learning capabilities, the platform can be deployed quickly and operated reliably at full line speed. By integrating this technology with Opto Engineering’s trusted machine vision components, customers gain a turnkey solution that combines robust hardware performance with adaptive, self-learning algorithms.

“Our mission is to make machine vision easier, smarter, and more reliable. Partnering with Opto Engineering allows us to deliver state-of-the-art AI solutions built on some of the best imaging technologies in the world,” said Alberto Cenedese, Co-Founder of FruitfulAI.

The partnership focuses on providing industrial clients with end-to-end quality control systems, from lighting and lenses to AI-driven analytics. Whether the need is for scratch detection on metal, measurement of fine tolerances, or classification of subtle visual defects, the joint offering ensures maximum accuracy with minimum integration effort.

“Opto Engineering is committed to establish partnerships with the most innovative companies in the field of AI, such as FruitfulAI,” said Michael Spinazzi, Sales Manager at Opto Engineering. “In this way, we push the boundaries of what is possible with machine vision, bringing additional valuable capabilities that expand the range of solutions we offer our customers.”

As part of the partnership, FruitfulAI has established a fully equipped vision lab in Zürich, featuring a wide range of Opto Engineering products available for demos, prototyping, and customer testing.

Together, FruitfulAI and Opto Engineering aim to set a new standard for quality control in the era of smart manufacturing. The partnership is already delivering value across industries including automotive, packaging, electronics, and more.
