When planning the service of tomorrow, you need to keep an eye on many factors. The number of influencing factors on your service portfolio is increasing day by day. So it’s important to keep track and focus on the key drivers and current technical developments. With over 45 exhibitors, the KVD ServiceCongress is one of the largest trade fairs for service in Germany. As an accompanying trade fair for the KVD Service Congress, it offers the unique opportunity to experience the latest solutions, products and services on 1,400 square meters in the palm atrium of the Hilton Hotel Munich Airport.

This year, we attended the 39th KVD ServiceCongress with the aim to discuss our services and AI solutions together with our customers and interested parties and to present concrete solutions, especially in the field of handwriting and object recognition. Above all, we wanted to make already existing applications of artificial intelligence accessible to the visitors and to bring the wide range of possibilities of IBM PowerAI as a service closer to them.

At the booth we presented a robotic vacuum gripper arm as a successor to our little robot Cozmo, and show how easy it is to recognize images of a memo game via a neural network. An accompanying presentation was met with huge interest. To be completely honest: we did not expect so much curiosity and enthusiasm from the audience. According to the motto “Just do it yourself!” we presented one possible way of how you could playfully approach the topics of neural networks, artificial intelligence, and 3D printing with little effort and a manageable budget.

As promised, we provide the presentation “Kinderspiel 2: Robotergreifarm, Bildererkennung und neuronale Netze – selber ausprobieren” for download in German. Just click on the image on the left.

You can get last year’s presentation “Kinderspiel 1” here.

The KVD ServiceCongresss visitors accepted our concept with a remarkable readiness. Thus it became very clear that we are on the right track and that, with the support of our partners, we have the correct answers to all our customer‘s questions.

The next KVD ServiceCongress will take place on the 5th and 6th of November 2020 in munich– we are looking forward to it!
