Press Release
Grupo Antolin and ennomotive launch a new technological challenge as part of the open innovation program ANTOLIN i.JUMP
• This challenge encourages engineers and companies from all over the world to develop a computer vision system to control the quality of the leather used in premium car interiors.
Burgos, 2 February 2022- Grupo Antolin, global supplier of technological solutions for car interiors, launches a new technological challenge jointly with ennomotive as part of its open innovation program ANTOLIN i.JUMP. With this program, Grupo Antolin seeks to develop innovative solutions to lead the transformation of the automotive industry, led by the electric and connected vehicle, and process digitation.
Through the open innovation platform created by ennomotive, a leading company specialized in solving technology challenges, Antolin has already completed six challenges in the last two years, where over three hundred engineering and professionals from all over the world submitted a solution. The 111 proposals allowed the company to access solutions and ideas that enrich its technological challenges and support future Grupo Antolin innovations.
This new challenge aims to design and validate a computer vision system for the detection of defects in leather used in interior trims for premium car, thus controlling the final quality. This way, an improvement in quality-cost can be achieved, as well as the automation of a process that, at present, it is done almost manually. This innovative process must be able to learn and improve its own efficiency.
