Inspection Technology Incorporates AI to Detect Defects in Real Time
DRESDEN, Germany, June 6, 2023 — Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Material and Beam Technology IWS have developed SURFinpro, a solution that uses artificial intelligence and optical measurement technology to detect, classify and visualize defects in real time, and report them to the plant carrying out the production. Ultra-light, ultra-thin, exceptionally reliable, all while reaching rapid production speeds — Dr. Christopher Taudt, group manager for Surface Metrology at the Zwickau-based Fraunhofer
