Fish Quality Inspection System - lythium.cl

I led the development of an advanced fish quality inspection solution for an industrial workflow. The system used image analysis to monitor fish quality and support automated fish sorting based on AI predictions. 🔹 Led the development of an advanced AI-powered fish quality inspection system for an industrial workflow. 🔹 Built an image analysis pipeline to monitor fish quality from production-line images. 🔹 Trained object detection models to identify fish and relevant visual quality indicators. 🔹 Trained segmentation models to support more detailed visual inspection of fish regions. 🔹 Designed the AI workflow to support automated fish sorting based on model predictions. 🔹 Worked on inspection logic that could classify or route fish based on quality-related outputs. 🔹 Designed the system for conveyor-belt usage, where images need to be processed consistently and reliably. 🔹 Focused on production issues such as image quality, camera consistency, lighting variation, and model reliability. 🔹 Helped convert visual inspection from a manual/rule-based workflow into an AI-supported inspection pipeline. 🔹 Built the system to reduce manual inspection effort and improve production workflow efficiency.

Shelfr.ai - Retail Automation Platform

I developed AI image solutions for retail automation and execution. The system handled large-scale product detection across 10,575+ SKUs, price tag detection, shelf and display type detection, and gap detection for empty shelf spaces. 🔹 Developed large-scale AI image solutions for retail automation and execution. 🔹 Worked on product detection across 10,575+ SKUs, where each SKU represented a unique product. 🔹 Built object detection workflows to identify products from retail shelf images. 🔹 Developed price tag detection to locate and extract price label areas from store images. 🔹 Worked on shelf and display type detection to understand the retail environment layout. 🔹 Built gap detection logic to identify empty shelf spaces and out-of-stock areas. 🔹 Supported computer vision workflows for retail compliance, shelf monitoring, and store execution. 🔹 Worked with high-volume image data and production-level inference requirements. 🔹 Managed high-load production servers on Google Cloud Platform. 🔹 Implemented load balancing and autoscaling to improve system stability under production traffic. 🔹 Focused on scalable AI infrastructure capable of handling real-world retail image workloads. 🔹 Helped create AI systems for inventory visibility, shelf condition monitoring, and retail execution analytics.
