Revolutionising DeGould's Automotive Inspection with Sony's SDK
DeGould is the global leader in automated vehicle inspection for OEMs. With the help of Sony’s software development kit, Degould were able to increase the efficiency of their Auto-scan and Auto-compact products.
- DeGould’s machine vision-based technology was unable to identify small defects on the surface of vehicles to carry out accurate vehicle inspection
- Combining Sony’s SDK and Alpha cameras with DeGould’s AI technology to operate multiple cameras at once and efficiently perform at an optimum level
- Sony helped DeGould’s software to grab and transfer images to a separate folder. Our AI algorithms processed the images in the cloud to identify the smallest of defects on the vehicles’ surfaces, irrespective of their colour
Sony has continued to invest in both the hardware and software side when some competitors haven’t done so. They are working continuously to improve and change how we can control the cameras.

Producing the best performance from DeGould's systems
In February 2020, Sony launched the SDK service which allowed for the integration of the full-frame Alpha cameras into highly industrialised systems like DeGould’s. Previously, users had to manually take the picture, whereas now, it can all be done electronically, remotely, and controlled from a software GUI.
Sony and DeGould's strategic partnership
Sony and DeGould share the objective of finding solutions for DeGould’s customers. For example, Sony’s technical team are helping DeGould determine the optimum lighting specification for our Auto-compact products. The expert team are also working on the SDK software linkages with DeGould’s systems. This expertise puts the company at the leading edge of imaging technology and ensures they deliver the very best products for their customers.
Leading the way in imaging technology
The camera technology DeGould use is ideal for the OEM use case. Irrespective of the colour of the car that is going through, they can maintain that very high image quality. The combination with SDK puts them at a competitive edge as they can remotely adjust their cameras in multiple ways.
