Chung-Ang University Develops AI for Non-Destructive Testing

Hi there,

Welcome to this week's edition of Industrial AI Weekly.

SAP has announced the expansion of its AI partnerships, successfully piloting robotics projects with companies like BITZER, Sartorius, and Martur Fompak. This initiative aims to enhance autonomous operations across various sectors. Meanwhile, Revenue Optics is making waves in the industrial distribution sector by investing in AI and automation. They've appointed Akansha Jaiswal as Senior Manager, Growth Systems & AI Enablement, to spearhead the development of an intelligent operating system for B2B growth.

Capgemini has teamed up with Orano to deploy Hoxo, a humanoid robot, at the Orano Melox Ecole des Métiers in France for a four-month pilot. In another development, Nomic has launched a new AI platform aimed at enhancing operations in Built World industries. Additionally, researchers from Chung-Ang University have developed DiffectNet, an AI technology designed to improve non-destructive testing by generating detailed ultrasonic images for detecting internal defects in materials.
