In the aspect of streamlined production and product quality inspection, it is sometimes necessary for human staff to observe, identify, and discover errors and omissions in the production process. No matter how strong a person's sense of responsibility is or how concentrated he/she is, he/she may be fatigued, neglected, distracted, not to mention, he may turn a blind eye to the mistakes of acquaintances, causing defective products to flow to the market. At the same time, if the all-manual inspection method is adopted on the assembly line, it is not only heavy work but also quite time-consuming. In a modern production line, such an inspection method cannot be accepted, and more importantly, it does not add any value to the production itself.
IBM's cognitive vision inspection technology can magnify the surface details of products through high-precision cameras, take pictures and analyze at the subtle level, and can detect quality problems that cannot be found by the human eye, such as PCB board defects, mobile phone component defects, liquid crystal defects, wafer defects, optical lens defects, etc.
IBM's cognitive vision inspection technology has been applied in the automotive industry, helping leading auto factories to achieve high-precision inspection of auto parts, welding, painting and other processes. The IBM cognitive vision inspection system can formulate the action path of the robot arm according to the 3D data of the vehicle model, and cooperate with the matrix industrial camera and auxiliary light source to complete the 360-degree high-definition photo of the whole vehicle.
