Sightwise GmbH

Address:An der Universität 1, 30823 Garbsen

Contact: Nils Graf-Gutsche

Description: Sightwise GmbH develops and markets innovative solutions for AI-based image processing in the context of visual quality assurance for manufacturing companies. The focus is on the detection of surface defects, for example in metal components in the automotive or aerospace industries. By generating synthetic (artificial) training data based on 3D geometry, the limitations of conventional AI approaches—such as a lack of data diversity and quality—can be overcome. The Sightwise AI pipeline generates a customized dataset for each use case, thereby optimizing model performance specifically for the customer. The result is software for analyzing 2D image data that is used in production—for example, in-line or in final inspection—to check the surface quality of products and components.

This opens up the possibility for customers to automate a range of inspection applications that were previously performed manually. Conventional approaches in 2D image processing have failed, particularly in cases of high component variability, rare types of damage, or dynamic lighting conditions. Unlike many providers of conventional (AI) image processing, Sightwise GmbH focuses precisely on these complex, previously unsolved inspection tasks, thereby offering its customers a two-pronged path to “Return on Investment (ROI)” —on the one hand, through the automation and objectification of previously manual processes, and on the other hand, through the first-ever systematic collection of image data and inspection results, which are then made available downstream for cross-functional process analyses. Depending on the product and industry, these analyses can then be used, for example, for production process improvements, predictive quality, or in the context of traceability.
