Exhibition
May 16, 2018
The second AI EXPO was held at Tokyo Big Sight from April 4 to 6, 2018. The event attracted approximately 46,000 attendees from a wide range of industries including manufacturing, telecommunications, and services. Among the exhibits, particular attention was given to AI applications in the manufacturing sector.
Musashi Seimitsu Industry, a manufacturer of automotive components, showcased an automatic visual inspection system developed in collaboration with ABEJA, a startup specializing in AI technologies.
The system features an AI-powered robot that inspects images of finished gear parts, having learned to differentiate between acceptable and defective items. It then automatically removes any defective parts.
A company representative commented, “Before marketing the system externally, we will first implement it at our own factory.”
AI Cube, a company established by Yaskawa Electric in March 2018 to accelerate its AI research, also participated in the event.
At its booth, AI Cube demonstrated a robotic system (see photo) capable of picking out required parts from a box containing various components.
A representative explained, “We are aiming to commercialize this system in the next fiscal year.”
