Challenge

Limitations of Manual Inspection

Current ESS setup primarily involves manual verification using paper checklists to detect missing parts or confirm the accuracy of knobs and switches. However, human error is unavoidable, necessitating additional administrative steps for verification, which is more labor and resource-intensive. Managing a large volume of paper checklists presents further challenges, and manual data entry can result in recording errors.

Solution

Optimized Setup Verification with META-aivi SOP Validation

META-aivi, powered by deep learning AI, quickly generates models of setup components for inspection. Using AR glasses, workers can conduct real-time verification to ensure correct wiring, switches, and knobs during setup with newfound ease and efficiency. META-aivi’s AR technology guides workers through the correct setup procedures, preventing errors. The inspection results can be uploaded to a central server, establishing a digital record of all inspections for greater diligence.

Outcome

Increased setup accuracy
Reduced setup inspection time
Eliminated data-recording errors
