Allow users to change the order of responses to questions in the Inspection Forms

When creating forms, once out in the field you may discover a change in the order of responses is needed. Right now you can move the questions up and down, but not the responses to the questions, or if there is a way to do so please let me know.

Need to keep the exif metadata of the picture (especially latitude and longitude) throughout the entire analysis and include in the json file generated by the MVI. This is essential for all the MVI use-cases related to assets inspections such as p...

Maximo Visual Edge needs to be Windows compatible

We're beginning the rollout of MVI edge at our company, as we find it more practical and economical than the mobile version. Our biggest hurdle while putting together the architecture has been its dependence on a linux based system. Our IT departm...

Anomoly model minimum threshold should use the field in the UI and not hard coded to 50%

The MVI anomaly model will detect low confidence anomalies rather frequently on normal parts and then display them in the results of the image. Even though MVI Edge has s UI field to setup "minimum" confidence levels for objects detected, it doesn...

Ability for MVI Edge to authenticate to MQTT using OAuth or 509 Certs

with MVI Edge only allowing for authentication of username and password, we are forced to add another piece of software to the architecture for MVI. If OAUth or 509 certs were allowed, we could use Azure Event Grid in the Azure cloud. We would not...

Live Stream View of the Camera during Inspection

MVI Sales Play

It would be great to be able to discount MVI to new AND existing clients, both using MAS and not. MVI can be a stand alone tool and is incredibly powerful, especialy once Watsonx gets involved.

See classification data associated with an image in a xml file!!!!!!

Today it's in a json file. With thousands of images it's simply too hard and time consuming to parse what we need. Net: we avoid classification even when it's the best option because MVI doesn't give the modelers the data needed succeed.
about 3 years ago in IBM MAS - Visual Inspection 0 Future consideration

Create work order or service request to Maximo Manage from a detected failure image, the actual version look like is not connected at all.

In the actual version of visual inspection, you only can create data sets and models, then use in mobile, but when you detected a failure you cannot create a work order to Manage Maximo or even a service request.
