Embedded AI & PCB Design

Industry & edge

AI inside the machine, not on a distant server

We design embedded systems and boards that run AI models on the production line itself. The decision is made locally in milliseconds — no network latency, no per-call cost, and no images leaving the plant.

  • Processing on the device, with no cloud connection
  • PCB designed for real industrial conditions
  • Defect detection on every piece, not a sample
  • Integration with your existing equipment and PLCs

The problem

Sampled inspection finds the fault far too late

When quality control is visual and sampled, a defect surfaces after a whole batch has been produced. The cost shows up as rejects, rework and customer complaints.

With sampled inspection

  • Checks on a sample, not every piece
  • Defects visible only after the batch
  • Subjective visual judgement, shift to shift
  • No record for trend analysis
  • Cloud solutions too slow for the cycle

With embedded AI on the line

  • Every produced piece inspected
  • Alert at the moment it happens
  • A consistent criterion on every shift
  • Inspection data available for trend analysis
  • Decision made locally, in milliseconds
How it works

From defect samples to the production line

We work alongside your QC staff, in the real conditions of the line.

Catalogue the defects

We define the defect types with your team and collect samples to train the model.

Design and test

We design the board and vision system for the line’s vibration, temperature, dust and lighting, and test it on site.

Run in parallel

It runs alongside your existing inspection so results can be compared before it takes over.

Integration

Connects to the equipment you already run

We do not replace the line. We add a node that speaks its language.

Use cases

Where it pays off most

Visual quality control

Detecting defects, missing components and deviations on every piece.

Predictive maintenance

Monitoring vibration and temperature to predict failure before downtime.

Traceability

Automatic code reading, linking every piece to its batch.

FAQ

Embedded AI & PCB — frequently asked questions

The production cycle leaves no time for an image to travel to a remote server. It also means no data leaves the plant and there is no per-call cost.

Installation is planned around a scheduled stop. Trial operation runs in parallel with existing inspection, without affecting production.

We hand over a documented retraining process so your team can add new types without needing us each time.

The board is designed for the real conditions — vibration, temperature, dust — and tested on site before installation.

Yes, over the industrial protocols you already use, so the system can mark or reject a piece automatically.

Longer than a software project, because it involves hardware and on-line testing. We give a realistic timeline in the free review.
