Abstract. Despite the continuous progress in computer vision, its application to many industrial tasks like the detection and size measurement of non-trivial defects is still a demanding problem. In this paper, typical challenges, workflows, and key performance indicators are discussed and the application of AI-based Semantic Image Segmentation methods is demonstrated to the detection of minute damages on metal surfaces using the d-fine vision toolbox. A performance improvement for a public data set above prior results is reported and the successful transfer of the approach to real-world sheet metal parts produced by voestalpine Automotive Components Schmölln GmbH is shown.
