My organisation
NorrSpect: Automating Inspection with AI Who We Are: NorrSpect is a cutting-edge software startup based in Umeå, Sweden, specializing in AI-driven image processing technology. Since our inception in 2023, we have been dedicated to revolutionizing quality assessment in manufacturing. The Problem: In the production industry, reliable and efficient tools for visual quality inspection are scarce. Manufacturers struggle to assess every part produced, leading to potential quality issues and increased costs. Our Solution: NorrSpect's flagship software, NorrStudio, leverages advanced AI and image processing to automatically perform visual quality inspections. Our technology ensures high-quality production, reduces material waste, saves time, and minimizes product recalls. Unlike traditional methods, our solution offers superior accuracy and cost-efficiency. We provide a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solution that enables manufacturers to ensure the quality of their products in real-time.
About me
I have more than 20 years of experience in image processing research at Umeå University. My work has covered interaction technology, signal processing, media technology, and deep learning. Over time, I grew especially interested in how these technical advances could be used to improve quality control and inspection workflows in industry. At NorrSpect, I oversee our vision model development, strategy, and how we integrate our solutions into industrial contexts — making sure they are not just technically strong, but also useful, robust, and scalable.
