Computer Vision with Google Gemini

Computer Vision built on Google Gemini, chosen where it genuinely fits, and swapped where it does not.

Why Google Gemini for this

The retraining pipeline is the deliverable people forget. Conditions drift, new defect types appear, and a model nobody can retrain quietly rots over a year.

Google Gemini is strongest at native multimodal input and very large context windows. For computer vision that matters because the failure modes of this kind of system tend to cluster exactly there.

The honest trade-off: less mature agentic tooling than the alternatives for complex multi-step work. We say that up front because a stack chosen for fashion rather than fit becomes someone's migration project two years later. We start from the constraint, not the capability, what the system must never do, who signs off, and what happens when it is wrong.

You own the code, the models where they are open-weight, and the documentation to run it without us.

We are not a reseller for Google and hold no commission on this choice. Where a different option fits your workload better, the recommendation will say so. That is the entire value of asking us.

What is included

  • Data collection protocol and labelling workflow
  • Model training against your real conditions and lighting
  • Edge deployment with offline tolerance
  • Precision and recall reported per defect class
  • Integration with MES, PLC or alerting systems
  • Retraining pipeline as conditions drift

Questions

How much training data do we need?

It depends on defect variability, but a few hundred well-labelled examples per class is a realistic starting point. We design the collection protocol first so the data you gather is actually usable.

Does it run without internet?

Yes. We deploy at the edge with offline tolerance, syncing results when connectivity returns, essential in most plant environments.

What accuracy can we expect?

We report precision and recall per defect class against a held-out set from your line, rather than a single headline number. The honest figure varies by class and we show which ones are hard.

Alternatives for computer vision

Same capability, different stack. Each page states its own trade-off.
