In the field of industrial automation and machine vision, data integration and process optimization remain key challenges for enterprises. As a member of the Siemens Workflow Canvas community, we have partnered with Siemens to drive seamless integration of smart manufacturing and machine learning applications.
Our Expertise: AI, 3D Vision, and AOI
We specialize in AI, 3D vision technology, and Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) to provide efficient and intelligent inspection solutions for the manufacturing industry. Our AI algorithms accurately identify defects in production, while 3D vision technology enhances detection accuracy to ensure the highest product quality standards.
Accelerating IT/OT Integration
Traditionally, the gap between Information Technology (IT) and Operational Technology (OT) has increased the complexity of system development and deployment. Siemens Workflow Canvas provides an intuitive low-code/no-code development environment, enabling IT and OT teams to collaborate and quickly build intelligent automation solutions. Leveraging this platform, we seamlessly embed machine learning models into production processes for real-time decision-making and anomaly detection.
Advanced Visualization and Data Management
In industrial environments, data visualization and analysis are crucial. The built-in 3D visualization capabilities of Workflow Canvas allow us to clearly present production line data and enhance data usability through the Semantic Data Layer (SDL). This not only improves the efficiency of equipment condition monitoring but also helps businesses achieve more precise predictive maintenance.
Scalable AI Applications
Our team focuses on developing AI-driven machine vision and automated inspection solutions, ensuring flexible deployment in both on-premise and cloud environments through Workflow Canvas’ containerized runtime. This scalability enables us to provide customers with flexible smart factory solutions, covering everything from product quality inspection to production process optimization, all in real-time applications.
Future Outlook
We will continue to deepen the integration of AI and industrial automation, maintaining close collaboration with the Siemens Workflow Canvas community to explore more innovative application scenarios. Through this platform, we look forward to helping more enterprises accelerate digital transformation and usher in a new era of smart manufacturing.

2. How does DaoAI's AOI system integrate with Siemens Workflow Canvas?
DaoAI's Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) system integrates with Siemens Workflow Canvas to provide high-precision defect detection within automated workflows. The integration allows for:
-
Seamless Communication: The Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) initiates inspection requests, which are managed by Workflow Canvas and forwarded to DaoAI's AOI system.
-
Real-Time Analysis: The AOI system captures images, analyzes data, and detects anomalies such as assembly misalignments or defects.
-
Automated Decision-Making: Based on inspection results, the system determines product quality status (OK or NG) and communicates with Workflow Canvas to trigger necessary corrective actions via the PLC or other connected equipment.
3. What are the benefits of integrating DaoAI's AOI system with Workflow Canvas?
The integration offers several advantages:
-
Enhanced Efficiency: Automates inspection processes, reducing manual intervention and increasing throughput.
