Next generation AR quality inspection
At this year's Control trade fair, the manufacturer Visometry will be presenting Twyn 2.4, its latest tool for particularly fast and flexible visual quality inspection.
Quality managers, especially in production and assembly, are familiar with these situations in which spontaneous, flexible AR object inspection via tablet would be desirable. With Twyn 2.4, Visometry provides them with the solution. The latest feature added to the tool is assisted deviation detection: This automatically provides real-time visual feedback; it now shows the discrepancies between a real object and its CAD model even if no elaborate data configuration preceded it. Twyn 2.4 celebrates its premiere at the World's leading trade fair Controlat the Visometry stand 3419 in hall 3.
There, trade visitors can also marvel at the exclusive, road-legal Sigma WR lightweight racing car from the young company Sigma Motor. The core of this racing car is an ultra-stable tubular frame. To visually inspect its numerous welds, struts and mounting points quickly and reliably, Sigma Motor employees rely on the special AR technology from Visometry. It is another example of the many successful applications in the automotive world. Numerous other industries and sectors also benefit from Visometry's head start in AR quality inspection: these range from the railroad industry to agricultural machinery, heavy machinery and shipbuilding to aviation and welding technology.
The Darmstadt-based company Visometry was founded in December 2017 as a spin-off of the Fraunhofer Institute for Computer Graphics Research (IGD). As a young start-up, the 41-strong team combines an innovative spirit with many years of R&D experience and in-depth expertise in AR and image processing as well as their application in industry.
