Record 1 2025-02-11

English

Subject field(s)
  • Surfing and Water-Skiing
CONT

A cutback is a surfing maneuver with which you change your direction on the rail by going back to the breaking part of the wave. See, when you’re at full speed, there's a big chance that you’re getting away from the breaking wave and heading towards the flat spots of the shoulder that don’t have the intrinsic power to carry you. So, you’ll lose speed, and you’ll need to get back to the wave to gain as much speed as you can. That's when you should perform a cutback. In that sense, a cutback isn’t only an aesthetic move, as it gets you back to the power source of the wave : its curl.

Key term(s)
  • cut-back

Subject field(s)
  • Artificial Intelligence
  • Applications of Automation
CONT

A computer vision inspection system is used in a production line to carry out responsibilities that humans struggle with. In this use case, the system uses high-resolution images to build a full 3D [tridimensional] model of components and their connector pins. As components run through the manufacturing plant, the computer vision system captures various images from different angles to generate a 3D model. These images, when combined and fed to AI [artificial intelligence] algorithms, identify any faulty threading or minor deviation from the design.
