Case
Engine Serial Number Recognition and Recording
After car engines are manufactured, a unique serial number is engraved or laser-etched onto the metal surface of each engine. This serial number, along with any additional symbols, is recorded and archived for future reference. Traditionally, the identification and recording of these markings have been performed manually, which is a time-consuming and labor-intensive process.
Challenge
Capturing and Reading Engine Serial Numbers
Car engine serial numbers are typically marked on the engine itself. However, capturing clear images of these numbers poses challenges due to shadows that can interfere with visibility. The metal composition further complicates matters by causing uneven background brightness or low contrast, making it difficult for automated systems to read the numbers accurately. Even manual visual inspection struggles with swiftly identifying these serial numbers along the production line.
Solution
AI-Powered Optical Character Recognition
SolVision facilitates seamless extraction and conversion of engine serial numbers from images into digital data using advanced visual inspection tools and Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology. This enables efficient integration into database systems and linkage with vehicle records. SolVision AI excels in adapting to diverse environmental conditions, ensuring accurate and rapid character recognition on production lines.
