Shaping tomorrow’s industrial data economy together

The open data platform for the application of artificial intelligence in Industry 4.0

The AI Living Lab is an open, virtual, and real collaboration of companies and AI experts for jointly solving industrial challenges using artificial intelligence methods.

As a company, find solutions for your digital questions, or as an AI expert, find data you have long needed. Likewise, as an observer and interested party, you can help shape the conditions under which artificial intelligence can unfold its greatest benefit in German industry.

… AI Experts – in search of good data

As a data scientist or researcher, are you always looking for good data to train your self-developed algorithms?

For this purpose, we provide high-quality data on our specially developed data portal. This data comes from real production systems – either from the CUNA production of SmartFactoryOWL or from cooperating industrial companies. The data can range from object-oriented image data from assembly processes to plant parameters such as temperature profiles or compressed air parameters. We provide this data unstructured, structured, or labeled with meta-information in the Industry 4.0 Asset Administration Shell, so that the data can be used more easily and without complex data engineering.

We can also support you in developing exciting use cases and integrate your insights into our community.

… Companies – Problem-solving with AI in your own operations

You generate large amounts of data in your production but don’t know how to use it effectively? With the help of artificial intelligence, information from processed data can be analyzed to demonstrate significant added value, thereby promoting the development of new products, services, and business models.

The AI Living Lab supports companies in using data profitably in the long term and strengthens innovative, trustworthy, and secure data exchange in industry.

We bring AI technologies to you in six steps:

 

nullUnstructured Data

Most companies do not have structured data.

 

null Standardization via Asset Administration Shell

With the help of interoperability support technologies, your data is first prepared so that it can be further processed.

 

nullStructured Datasets

This Industry 4.0 compliant standardization offers you numerous benefits. Your data will be structured and machine-readable, you can network systems with each other, and deploy AI algorithms.

 

nullAI Living Lab Platform

Your data can thus be uploaded to the AI Living Lab platform and processed there by AI experts.

 

null Optimization

The results provide you with valuable optimization potential, analyze errors or conditions, and highlight the potential of data-driven value creation for your operations.

 

null Application

The AI Living Lab also supports you in integrating these results into your company.

Use Case 1 Collaborative Condition Monitoring (CCM)

Thanks to the gradual realization of interoperability, cross-company data exchange within the value chain, consisting of component and machine suppliers as well as factory operators, could be achieved. This improves the reliability and lifespan of components, machines, and systems. On the path to an industrial data economy, further service-based business models can thus be developed.

Use Case 2 Smart Product Development through Customer Feedback

Most companies have no way of receiving customer feedback from downstream actors in the value chain. In this use case, AI-supported feedback of customer feedback from later phases of the product life cycle was implemented. Companies thus receive an answer to the question: “How can I integrate my customers’ feedback into my product development with the help of meaningful data analysis?”
