AI-Assisted Defect Detection and Quality Control in Manufacturing (Inferred from Academic Paper)

Imagine a very fast, tireless inspector standing on your production line, looking at every part that comes by. Instead of using human eyes, it uses a camera and an AI model trained to notice tiny defects or mistakes. When it spots something off, it flags it immediately so you can fix it before it becomes scrap, a rework job, or a customer complaint.
