Abstract

The digital transformation of industry, also known as Industry 4.0, relies on a range of technologies within manufacturing, data processing, and sensors. One of these technologies is machine vision, which allows real-time quality inspection. However, small and medium-sized enterprises struggle to adopt this technology. Hence, an overview of the potential barriers and opportunities of this technology is needed to create awareness of areas of concern for further adoption. This study identifies the barriers and opportunities through stakeholder interviews. The interviews are analyzed through Gioia methodology and are divided into sensing, seizing, and transformation barriers. Identifying these barriers can assist both practitioners and researchers in their future work to progress within the field.
