Quectel continues to drive digital transformation with advanced smart module, edge intelligence and machine vision technologies at CES 2023 

CES, Las Vegas, 6 January, 2023 –  Quectel Wireless Solutions, a global IoT solutions provider,  is today demonstrating its smart module capabilities with compute-intensive  and edge intelligence applications. Using Quectel’s high performance SG865W-WF  smart module the demonstration showcases how future use cases of industrial  applications, digital signage, unattended retail, fleet management and  healthcare can be enabled with edge intelligence and machine vision  functionality.

The SG865W-WF is Quectel’s new generation of Android smart  module with built-in octa-core high-performance Kryo 585 CPU, Adreno 650 GPU,  Adreno 995 DPU, Adreno 665 VPU, Hexagon DSP, and Spectra 480 ISP. The module  supports Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.1 and 2 × 2 Wi-Fi MIMO technology. A rich set  of interfaces such as LCM, camera, touch panel, I2S, PCIe, UART, USB, I2C,  SPI, etc. allow the module to serve a wide range of IoT applications  including a state-of the-art visual inspection system currently deployed in  Quectel’s own automated module production line.

Utilizing the Qualcomm QCS8250  system-on-chip, the Quectel SG865W-WF smart module and industrial equipment  including a camera, lens and light, the machine vision solution uses edge  computing to deliver the real-time analysis needed to identify defective  samples including scratches, dirt, and abnormal surface printing on each  module, screening out any defective modules during production. By deploying  this solution, Quectel has realized industry-leading accuracy and high-speed  defect detection – greatly improving the production efficiency and quality of  our products.

“We are committed to driving digital transformation across all  industry sectors through our broad IoT portfolio, working closely with our  technology partner, Qualcomm,” commented Norbert Muhrer, President and CSO,  Quectel Wireless Solutions. “The visual inspection solution we have  implemented in our own factories, is an excellent example of how we are not  only creating the ground-breaking smart modules needed for advanced applications,  but also using the technology in our own manufacturing to create a  best-in-breed, industry leading defect detection system – helping us to  greatly improve quality while saving production costs.”

The visual inspection  solution is just one of a range of solutions that have used Quectel smart  modules to enable high performance, edge computing and machine vision  functionality. Customers looking to develop advanced machine vision and edge  intelligence based solutions can work closely with Quectel’s experts to  create customized solutions.
