A video processing pipeline receives data derived from a feed of images of a plurality of objects passing in front of an inspection camera module forming part of a quality assurance inspection system. Quality assurance metrics for the object are generated by one or more containerized image analysis inspection tools forming part of the video processing pipeline using the received data for each object. Overlay images are later generated that characterize the quality assurance metrics. These overlay images are combined with the corresponding image of the object to generate an enhanced image of each of the objects. These enhanced images are provided to a consuming application or process for quality assurance analysis.
