Specialists of the Penza Artillery Engineering Institute (PAII) have developed software (SW) with elements of artificial intelligence (AI) that automatically recognizes parts and provides recommendations for repairing artillery guns. The project was shown at the XXI International Salon of Inventions and New Technologies "New Time" in Sevastopol.
The university explained that the program was created for the effective training of specialists in the missile and artillery weapons service. According to a representative of PAII, even experienced repairmen cannot always immediately identify a part during the maintenance of military equipment. Before that, they had to search for all information about unfamiliar components in reference books manually.
In combat conditions, the development will help speed up the return of equipment to service.
What can the new repair assistant do?
The specialist works in virtual reality (VR) glasses connected to a computer. The system identifies the part in real time, provides information from the database (developed at PAII), and also suggests ways to repair it.
Neural network technology allows you to inspect a sample in 3D and perform its "section".
