3D Infotech, a leader in automated industrial metrology, introduces an AI-driven inspection system at NVIDIA’s GTC conference this week. 3D Infotech’s industrial automation software for quality control is designed to accelerate the enablement of AI-edge computing technology that is embedded in collaborative robots from Universal Robots.
3D Infotech’s software platform is designed for seamless integration with Universal Robots’ latest AI Accelerator, enhancing production processes by improving decision-making through computer vision and optimizing motion control with AI driven training models. Built on NVIDIA’s Jetson Orin and PolyScope X, the AI Accelerator delivers a superior customer experience while significantly reducing robot programming time. This allows workers to focus less on development and troubleshooting and more on efficiency and innovation.
As a category creator for Universal Metrology Automation® in 2017, 3D Infotech has led advancements in Universal Machine Learning®, using deep learning algorithms to detect, classify, and quantify visual defects in manufacturing. With over 350 systems deployed—primarily in the aerospace and automotive sectors—3D Infotech is now setting the stage for Adaptive Manufacturing, where robots think and adapt rather than just execute pre-programmed tasks.
The AI Accelerator plays a crucial role in this evolution by simplifying AI deployment, enhancing automation efficiency, and enabling real-time decision-making. With its seamless integration into robotics systems, unmatched computing power, and full ROS2.0 support, the AI Accelerator helps manufacturers transition toward a more autonomous, data-driven production environment.
