Technology Overview

Our smart VIOLET AI cameras and AI analytics platform helps manufacturers to enhance human productivity by providing continuous real time insights into manual production operations, leading to better training, fewer defects, and reduced waste. We are the Google analytics for manual production lines.

Technology Features, Specifications and Advantages

Vision Intelligence is a start-up provider of advanced video analytics in manufacturing. Our technology consists of purpose-build edge-AI camera and sensor systems onto which industrial users can use our video analytics through a suite of advanced applications served through an easy-to-use portal.

The technology involves mounting our Edge AI Cameras at production lines with the video parsed and processed using computer vision AI to recognise human actions, product states and plant environment on the production line. Insights and alerts are delivered on powerful dashboards, providing real-time data for improving productivity:

• Digitise human action from skilled operators to provide automated time, motion and error capture data
• Alert operators about special-process defects so they can be remedied immediately
• Extract and segment video of human actions on the shop-floor to retain best-practice through digitalised knowledge transfer
• Remote access to visualise special-process operations in real-time by distributed process engineering teams
• Capture unprecedented business intelligence about human operations to understand utilisation which significantly impacts energy consumption and sustainability

Potential Applications

Potential applications include:

• Assisting operators during component assembly
• Provision of real-time data on production metrics
• Real time detection of potential defects and alerts
• Generation of traceability files for every product manufactured

VIOLET AI technology can be used on any discrete assembly line. Example sectors applications include Aerospace, MRO, Automotive, Construction, Consumer Electronics.

Customer Benefit

VIOLET AI digitises manual production/build/assembly/maintenance operations using advanced AI, extracting data based on operator and line activity while providing insights to production managers and actionable recommendations to the operators. Our innovation is beyond state-of-the-art computer vision; by placing UX at the core of AI and IoT, we are improving the way in which people work, learn and develop.

VIOLET AI delivers productivity improvements through innovative AI technology with User Experience at its core. The system brings value through: Automatic defect detection (Reduce waste, CO2) Traceability & compliance via automatically created historical records (Identify root causes instantly) Automatic skill capture on the factory floor for operator training and knowledge dissemination (Easily train, retrain and engage your workforce)
