CareersComputer Vision in theAutomotive Industry
Auto parts are complex and may present a multitude of defects.
Deep learning and artificial intelligence (AI) solutions in the automotive industry can provide various benefits.
Applications
One use of AI in car manufacturing is the inspection of automobile parts. The automotive industry benefits from AI visual inspection and machine vision technologies for examining everything from printed circuit boards to vehicle doors.
Electric Vehicle Battery Inspection
Machine vision deployment in electric vehicle (EV) battery inspection has grown in recent years because of the rise in EV popularity. Manufacturers have used 2D and 3D machine vision technologies to inspect battery components and cells, but there are several different types of batteries and a considerable amount of variability when it comes EV battery assemblies.
Crack Inspection Of Automotive Parts
Small cracks in automotive parts such as camshafts, brake discs, or brake pads can potentially lead to failures that can be costly and damage customer relationships. Early identification of such cracks is critical for automotive manufacturers.
Radiator (HVAC System) Inspection
Automotive parts such as radiators can feature complex patterns, making visual inspection challenging, oftentimes producing high false-positive rates.
Part Assembly Inspection
In automated automotive manufacturing processes, companies must ensure that the correct parts get installed in the right location. Consider the ramifications of riveting panels or structural components together in the wrong spots. Machine vision systems leveraging deep learning software can help identify the correct parts while also spotting potential defects, saving the company time and money on costly rework.
Leak Detection
Once an automotive assembly process has been completed, the manufacturer must ensure that no leaks are present. With the help of deep learning–based visual inspection, companies can detect leaks and avoid product escapes.
Final Assembly Verification
Deep learning–based visual inspection systems can verify proper assembly of the correct rim, wheel, and tire type for the right vehicle model, for example.
Seat Thread Inspection
Visual inspection systems utilizing deep learning software can ensure proper interior automotive part installation and allow the vehicle to move along to the next part of the assembly process.
Painting And Surface Defects
Often performed by manual inspectors, surface defect detection helps prevent vehicles from leaving the factory floor with imperfections, which is critical for the company’s reputation.
LandingLens Benefits for Computer Vision and AI in the Automotive Industry
LandingLens is an industry-first data-centric artificial intelligence (AI) visual inspection platform that helps improve inspection accuracy and reduce false positives in car manufacturing. The end-to-end platform standardizes deep learning solutions that reduce development time and scale projects easily to multiple facilities across the globe. See more benefits of AI in the automotive industry below.
Maintain Quality, Boost Efficiency
Compliant
- Automotive manufacturing involves many part types of varying shapes and sizes. Defects in these parts can lead to problems for manufacturers and customers, so identifying defects early in the process is a top priority. Certain complex inspection tasks present problems for rules-based machine vision solutions, but deep learning software can help.
- LandingLens software lets automotive manufacturers maintain product quality by deploying their own AI deep-learning models and optimizing inspection accuracy without any impact on production.
A Complete Inspection System
- Automotive manufacturers can deploy LandingLens to augment existing automated inspection systems. LandingLens can augment a machine vision system by providing an added layer of security. For example, if a rules-based system rejects a part, LandingLens can reevaluate the rejection to distinguish an actual defect from an acceptable variation.
- It ensures that acceptable parts move to the next assembly step, maintaining an efficient production flow while catching defects early in the process.
