# How can a mattress or furniture maker use computer vision to inspect upholstered goods?

Cameras at the end of the line look at each mattress, cushion or sofa cover as it passes and flag loose or crooked seams, puckers, stains, tears, uneven edges and missing labels for a person to check. Each flag is saved with a photo and the order or batch, so repeat problems point back to a station or a roll of fabric. A quality lead decides every pass or rework, and the usual product tests and label rules stay in place.

## What this means in practice

- Fixed cameras and even lighting at the end of the line take pictures of the top, sides and corners of each mattress, cushion or cover as it moves past.
- The model is trained on the clients own products and fabrics. It flags loose, skipped or crooked stitching, puckers and wrinkles, stains, tears, uneven tape edges, and a missing or crooked law label or care tag.
- Each flag is saved with a photo, the time, the order or batch and the line, so the team can see if one sewing station, machine or fabric roll keeps causing the same problem.
- A quality lead checks every flagged item and decides whether it ships, gets fixed or is pulled. The cameras point at the product, not at workers, and any people caught in view are blurred.
- Start with one line and one product, compare the camera flags with what the inspectors find for a few weeks, and keep the existing product tests, safety rules and label checks in place.

## How Lid Vizion approaches it

We start with the business decision and operating context, define ownership and measurable milestones, then use configuration, integrations, automation, or custom software only where each earns its place.
