SAN MARCOS, CA – Creative Electron has been awarded a patent for AI-powered programming of x-ray inspection systems.
“Method and system to automatically inspect parts using x-rays” is a patent that reflects the firm’s “commitment to push the envelope when it comes to fulfilling our customers’ needs,” said Bill Cardoso, Ph.D., Creative Electron’s founder and CEO. “The protection of our IP is critical to allow us to continue investing in R&D to deliver fully autonomous x-ray inspection systems.”
This patent reflects technology Creative Electron has been developing that allows a sample to be inspected without the need for an operator to program the machine. Using AI engines and machine learning algorithms, programing for both navigator level and planner level is fully automated.
Once programed, the system navigates required inspection points, captures and analyzes images, assesses quality based on established test criteria, and reports results for each sample.
