Machine Learning und Computer Vision

We develop AI models that work in real-world processes

Many companies already have valuable data: images from inspection processes, measurement values from equipment, sensor data from products, or historical process data. However, the real value only emerges when this data is transformed into reliable models, clear analyses, or automated inspections.

We assess whether your data is suitable for this purpose, develop appropriate machine learning or computer vision models, and integrate them into existing applications, systems, or processes.

Here's what we offer in the areas of machine learning and computer vision

  • We are assessing the feasibility

    We assess whether data, images, measurement values, or sensor data are suitable for machine learning or computer vision.

  • We process data

    Data is structured, cleaned, and analyzed so that models can produce reliable results.

  • We develop ML models

    Models identify patterns, classify data, generate forecasts, or assess technical conditions.

  • We develop computer vision solutions

    Images are analyzed, objects are detected, defects are identified, or quality characteristics are checked.

  • We train and validate models

    Results are tested, accuracy is evaluated, and practical applicability is thoroughly assessed.

  • We analyze measurement data

    Technical data, sensor data, and process values are made understandable and usable for decision-making.

  • We integrate models into software

    Models are integrated into existing applications, processes, systems, or production environments.

  • We support the pilot project

    Monitoring, versioning, updating, and further development are taken into account from the very beginning.

Common issues we encounter

1. Data is available but unused
Images, measurement values, or process data are collected but not systematically analyzed.

2. Data quality is unclear
There is a lack of structure, labels, reference values, or clean data sets for reliable models.

3. Internal technical expertise is lacking
Data science, model training, validation, and integration require experience that is often not permanently available within the company.

4. Manual checks take too much time
Visual inspections, quality checks, or evaluations tie up specialists and remain prone to errors.

5. Errors are detected too late
Deviations, patterns, or anomalies are difficult to spot in large data sets.

6. A prototype doesn’t work in everyday use
Initial models deliver results but cannot be stably integrated into real-world processes.

7. Accuracy is insufficient
Models appear promising, but their accuracy, stability, or traceability are insufficient for everyday use.

8. Operations are not clearly defined
Without monitoring, versioning, and updates, a model loses quality over time.

References from machine learning and computer vision

1. Emmi

Emmi wanted to make packaging inspections more reliable and efficient. To achieve this, soxes developed a machine learning solution that identifies relevant features and supports quality inspection with data-driven insights. This makes deviations visible more quickly and improves the usability of inspection processes in the production environment.

2. Electrolux

Electrolux processes large volumes of service requests and repair data. soxes developed an AI-based repair configurator as a proof of concept. The solution analyzes error messages, product groups, and historical repair data to suggest suitable replacement parts. This makes technical data actionable, reduces support inquiries, and better supports repair processes.

3. GRS Gemresearch Lab AG

For the digital presentation of certified gemstones, soxes developed a native AR app with integrated computer vision. Since gemstones exhibit only subtle visual characteristics, standard solutions like ARKit and ARCore were insufficient for recognition. soxes therefore trained its own machine learning model for image analysis. This model identifies certified gemstones based on visual characteristics, retrieves relevant data via APIs from the new LIMS, and enables a stable display of relevant content in augmented reality.
