Lots of materials science interest in this area. Applications are pretty diverse, but there are definitely opportunities at the microscope OEMs, as well as in manufacturing - steel and metals processing like sibling mentioned, also aerospace (I know some aerospace R&D folks that are doing a bunch of semantic segmentation for microstructure analysis - for like engine disk material design and that sort of thing) and other sectors. You might look into the additive manufacturing OEMs if that catches your interest, process monitoring (video and acoustic) is a big deal there You could also look into the lab automation sector, that is taking off in a big way recently for materials and chemistry (round 2 for chemistry i guess). Chemspeed is the big name but there’s a bunch of smaller companies doing cool vision and robotics stuff in this area
