Image Recognition
Škoda Auto says it is using AI-based image recognition to ensure timely identification of maintenance needs on the assembly line. At the main plant in Mladá Boleslav, the Škoda FabLab has installed a system that continuously monitors the assembly line equipment. Miroslav Stejskal, Predictive Maintenance Coordinator, Škoda Auto Central Technical Service, says: “At Škoda Auto we are committed to predictive maintenance as a means to ensure that our production equipment is always in perfect shape. This makes Škoda Auto one of the first companies in the Czech Republic to use the possibilities of AI-supported predictive maintenance. This “implementation arena” can be used to experiment with different camera settings, configure system parameters and simulate damage to the assembly line.
