Abstract
Aspects of the present disclosure include methods, systems, and non-transitory computer readable media that perform the steps of capturing capture one or more images comprising a plurality of visual features of an inspected device, transmitting the one or more images to a server comprising a neural network, wherein the neural network analyzes the plurality of visual features to identify the inspected device and the server identifies the checklist comprising tasks or questions associated with an inspection process of the inspected device, receiving the checklist associated from the server, and displaying the checklist.
Claims16
A mobile device for inspection, comprising:
- a camera;
- a memory that store instructions;
- and
- a processor configured to execute the instructions to:
- cause the camera to capture one or more images comprising a plurality of visual features of an inspected device, wherein the plurality of visual features are configured to identify the inspected device, and wherein the inspected device is associated with an inspection process;
- transmit the one or more images to a server comprising a neural network configured to identify the inspected device from the plurality of features and to identify a checklist of tasks or questions associated with the inspection process for the inspected device;
- receive the checklist associated with the inspected device as identified by the neural network from the server;
- and
- display a formatted user interface of one or more the tasks or the questions from the checklist.
A method of automating a display of a checklist at a computer device, comprising:
- capturing, by a camera of a computer device, one or more images comprising a plurality of visual features of an inspected device, wherein the plurality of visual features are configured to identify the inspected device, and wherein the inspected device is associated with an inspection process;
- transmitting, by a transmitter of the computer device, the one or more images to a server comprising a neural network configured to identify the inspected device from the plurality of features and to identify a checklist of tasks or questions associated with the inspection process for the inspected device;
- receiving, by a receiver of the computer device, the checklist associated with the inspected device as identified by the neural network from the server;
- and
- displaying, by a display of the computer device, a formatted user interface of one or more the tasks or the questions from the checklist.
A system, comprising:
- a neural network configured to identify an inspected device from a plurality of features;
- a server configured to identify a checklist of tasks or questions associated with an inspection process for the inspected device;
- and
- a mobile device configured to:
- capture, by a camera of the mobile device, one or more images comprising the plurality of visual features of the inspected device, wherein the plurality of visual features are configured to identify the inspected device, and wherein the inspected device is associated with the inspection process;
- transmit, by a transmitter of the mobile device, the one or more images to the server;
- receive, by a receiver of the mobile device, the checklist associated with the inspected device as identified by the neural network;
- and
- displaying, by a display of the mobile device, a formatted user interface of one or more the tasks or the questions from the checklist.
A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions stored therein that, when executed by a processor of a mobile device, cause the processor to:
- cause a camera to capture one or more images comprising a plurality of visual features of an inspected device, wherein the plurality of visual features are configured to identify the inspected device, and wherein the inspected device is associated with an inspection process;
- transmit the one or more images to a server comprising a neural network configured to identify the inspected device from the plurality of features and to identify a checklist of tasks or questions associated with the inspection process for the inspected device;
- receive the checklist associated with the inspected device as identified by the neural network from the server;
- and
- display a formatted user interface of one or more the tasks or the questions from the checklist.
