AI-Driven Toolbox for Efficient and Transferable Visual Quality Inspection in Production
摘要
Conventional optical systems for quality inspection often encounter limitations due to the constraints of standard image processing pipelines. The customization required for these systems to function in a production environment is not only laborious and costly, but also lacks versatility for various inspection challenges. In this paper, we introduce an Artificial Intelligence (AI)-powered, adaptable toolbox for Visual Quality Inspection. Our toolbox employs divide-and-conquer methodologies, simplifying intricate tasks into manageable sub-problems that can be addressed with established AI techniques. A user-friendly interface facilitates process monitoring and data collection at the production level, enhancing the AI processing. This innovative strategy promotes the digitization of knowledge via sub-problem annotation, offering a reusable and transferable solution for future Industry 4.0 scenarios. We showcase the efficacy and flexibility of our AI-centric quality inspection approach in different real-world production scenarios.
