Abstract
A system and method for augmenting and automating an ERP (enterprise resource planning) system with artificial intelligence to monitor the progress with a non-intrusive technique in human assembly.
Claims20
A system for monitoring a work process for an assembly, the system comprising:
- a processor in data communication with a computer readable medium, wherein the computer readable medium contains a computer program stored thereon;
- a workstation monitored by the processor;
- a plurality of sensors at the workstation for monitoring signatures of a process flow of an assembly, wherein the computer program determines a progress of the process workflow for the from the plurality of signatures.
The system of claim, wherein the computer program reports the progress of the workflow to an enterprise resource planning system.
A method for monitoring a work process for an assembly, the method comprising:
- reading on a processor, a plurality of sensors at workstation for monitoring signatures of a process flow of an assembly;
- and
- determining a progress of the process workflow for the from the plurality of signatures.
The method of claim, further comprising:
- reporting the progress of the workflow to an enterprise resource planning system.
