Visual Data Processing Platform

Trend

The era of using visual data (shape, photo, video, etc.) for the purpose of business efficiency and automation is about to begin.

• 
  The advance in visual data acquisition and processing technology
  Application of 3D shape data processing technology from 2D is becoming common. Especially, it is already widely used in the EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) and fabrication industries. Along with this, data processing technology based on image sensing and AI that acquires data is being advanced. Lightweight high-performance image sensors, high-precision LiDAR scanning equipment, drones with image acquisition technology, and 2D/3D image recognition technologies using AI serve as the basis for promoting innovation.
• 
  Smart factory business automation using visual data
  New technologies that process visual data are contributing greatly to actualizing smart factories. Business innovation using visual data is taking place in various fields, such as the automation of on-site design, inspection, and measurement tasks performed by people, and operational efficiency using IoT sensors.
• 
  Fabrication work automation using visual data
  New technologies that process visual data are contributing greatly to creating a smart manufacturing environment. The use of an automatic defect analysis system that compares design data and actual data acquired as images is increasing, and this system increases productivity by dramatically reducing repetitive work involving people.

Customer Case

Challenges
Company A is a globally recognized leader in the semiconductor industry. As a result of the current situation analysis for improvement and efficiency of facility layout work, it was found that the batch design work took a long time and the productivity deviation of the batch result was large among designers. Company A decided to use AI technology to solve this problem.

To automate facility layout design, it is necessary to be able to handle a variety of data, such as design quantities and rules, as well as processing technology for reading and writing drawings. AI skills to find the optimal solution is required and layout design drawings and equipment connection tables should be generated.

As it was a challenging project, we needed the best professional service.

S-Core Services
To automate facility layout, we used drawing processing modules that we have secured, and established a problem-solving plan with top experts to solve specialized problems. In addition, we have built a system that presents the optimal solution using AI.

Success in automating processes that were thought to be difficult to achieve in the work-site operations has resulted in similar or better results and shortening time than equipment placement experts. In particular, the management of company A gained confidence to try new challenges on tasks that were thought to be impossible before.

Effects
Company A has revolutionized facility layout design work.

Quantitative effect
– Facility layout optimization: Shortened layout design period (4 weeks → 4 hours) and reduced the total pipe length by 50%.
– Reduced cost by shortening the construction period: Expected to save 15 billion won per year

Qualitative effect
– Up-to-date information and improved match rate
– Increased management convenience and efficiency through systematization
