PARTFINDER is a computer vision-based solution for craftsmanship and industry that allows one to identify fasteners and replacement parts in a few seconds.
PARTFINDER simplifies and speeds up the customer care, the e-commerce systems and the warehouse management.
2. ● To identify fasteners, replacement parts and tools accurately
and instantly
● The identification process typically requires time and
experienced personnel
○ The majority of items are not marked (barcode or QR code)
○ High error rate due to human judgement
● The cost of the identification process is therefore higher than the
item itself
Problem
3. PARTFINDER allows you to accurately identify replacements parts and fasteners right away
through a Software as a Service (SaaS) platform based on DART, the proprietary GETCOO’s
image recognition technology
Solution
4. DART is GETCOO’s Computer Vision (CV) proprietary technology based on Artificial
Intelligence (AI) for Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR).
DART comes with several advantages with respect to competitors’ solutions:
Items vs categories
● Allows you to identify specific items (tapping screw M5 cod. 213665, Adidas Gazelle
sneakers blue cod. 4651155, ...), not just categories (tapping screw, sneakers, ...).
Fast learning
● Time effective: training process for a new item requires just a few images (compared
to hundred thousands)
● Cost effective: computationally lightweight (no supercomputer needed)
Performances
● Acquisition time, search time, and precision are constant and independent in the
number of items in the database
● DART can identify specific items in million items database with no loss in accuracy and
response time
