[News] OKI AI Edge Partnership: Copy Corporation joins as an AI Edge Partner.

Easy operation even for AI beginners! A next-generation AI platform that realizes factory automation and quality control.

This is an AI platform designed for the manufacturing industry. By using this tool, you can achieve factory automation and labor reduction, while also easily managing quality control. It supports tasks such as visual inspections and analysis of worker behavior with AI, assisting operations on the shop floor. Why it’s good: It offers intuitive operation that can be used without specialized AI knowledge. It can learn from a small amount of data, making implementation easy. Additionally, it incorporates the following advanced technologies: - XAI (Explainable AI): Clarifies the reasoning behind AI decisions, allowing users to understand AI behavior. - QAAI (Quality Assurance AI): Generates data and verifies quality while considering environmental changes and disturbances, providing a stable AI model. Why explainability and robust AI are necessary: In manufacturing environments, it is crucial to understand how AI makes decisions. XAI enhances reliability by making the reasoning behind AI decisions explicit, allowing for safe operation. Furthermore, QAAI provides a robust model capable of responding to disturbances and environmental changes, ensuring stable performance on the shop floor. *For more details, please refer to the "Related Catalog" and contact us.*

• Image analysis software

Significant efficiency improvements in manual processes with the help of AI! Analyzing work processes from videos of the manufacturing site.

What is Operator Analysis? Operator Analysis AI is an innovative tool that visualizes work on the manufacturing line in real-time and recorded footage, enabling efficient production processes. It can dramatically improve productivity and quality in manufacturing settings through accurate understanding of cycle times, optimization of process flows, improvement of work actions, optimization of personnel allocation, detection of work omissions, and estimation of work loads. Benefits of Work Analysis 1. Remarkable Efficiency - Eliminates waste through detailed analysis of work processes, significantly improving work efficiency. 2. Assurance of Top Quality - Reduces work omissions and errors through consistent procedures, dramatically enhancing product quality. 3. Improved Safety - Monitors work actions in real-time, allowing for early detection and correction of risky behaviors, thereby providing a safe working environment. 4. Cost Reduction - Reduces operational costs by eliminating unnecessary work and duplication, optimizing personnel and resources.
