BMW neural-network visual inspection. Passes gate 1 cleanly on BMW's own words
- set aside as
- NOT FOUND
- the researcher's note
- BMW neural-network visual inspection. Passes gate 1 cleanly on BMW's own words: "they create an image database in order to build a so-called neural network, which can later evaluate the images without human intervention", trained "from around 100 images". In series production since 2018. But the release gives no employee count and no measured defect figure — only "relieves our people of repetitive tasks" and "the reliability reaches 100%".
