Fraunhofer Institute of Optronics, System Technologies and Image Exploitation IOSB 
Our compact, modular solution offers medium-sized companies an uncomplicated and cost-effective introduction to the world of AI-supported process optimization. You receive a complete, practical evaluation of the AI potential of your production processes – easily integrated, ready for immediate use, and without interfering with existing systems.
Hardware: Flexible integration & data collection
The Potential pilot hardware can be integrated into your production process in no time at all. It enables the retroactive-free collection of production data directly from your existing communication systems and supplements this with additional sensors in the process room if required. This gives you a comprehensive picture of your process data without changing existing data flows between machines, tools, and control systems.
Software: Intelligent analysis & transparent results
The Potential pilot AI software pipeline efficiently transforms your raw data into actionable insights. Thanks to automated data plausibility checks, synchronization of various data sources, and modern AI methods, the full optimization potential of your processes becomes visible. Our AI analyses provide you with clear recommendations and comprehensible reports within a few days – as a basis for your investment decisions.
