AI supports assembly specialists

Artificial intelligence (AI) enables machines to recognize objects. For this purpose, large amounts of high-quality image data are required to manually train the algorithms. Kimoknow, a startup established at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), has now developed a technology to automate this training. It is tested in cooperation with Elabo GmbH at the Center for Artificial Intelligence Talents (CAIT). "Training of AI systems for the recognition of objects still is time-consuming, inflexible, expensive, highly environment-dependent, and associated with a high computation expenditure," says Lukas Kriete, one of the founders of Kimoknow.
