Failure Sign Detection
For manufacturers concerned about a shortage of maintenance personnel and a decline in on-site capabilities, the use of edge computers to reduce, upgrade, and remotely centralize facility maintenance operations has become an extremely important theme. The industrial Raspberry Pi PiLink4 enables the “world’s first” open computer with unique interfaces to the latest semiconductor sensors and a wide variety of manufacturing equipment controllers that can replace the five senses of maintenance personnel at a low cost.
Data collected from sensors and equipment controllers can be subjected to advanced mathematical processing using open source software such as Scipy, or adapted from Scikit-learn, Tensorflow, and various AI libraries released by universities and research institutes. This allows us to develop AI algorithms that are optimal and just right for your facility without having to rely on expensive AI software available on the market.
PiLink collaborates extensively with industrial machinery equipment manufacturers, sensor manufacturers, and end-user maintenance personnel. We provide not only development and prototyping of dedicated expansion boards and contracted software development of measurement and AI judgment, but also support for system integration with customers’ equipment controllers, PLCs, major cloud services, on-premise file servers, AI servers, etc. We provide added value beyond hardware provision. We provide value-added services that go beyond hardware supply.
AI Image Recognition
Image recognition using edge AI, which does not require an Internet connection, is attracting increasing attention in the fields of manufacturing, logistics, and equipment monitoring.
PiLink proposes an image recognition system implemented with the next-generation NPU Hailo-8L, which is an excellent match for the Raspberry Pi.
