Abstract: The systems and methods provide an action recognition and analytics tool for use in manufacturing, health care services, shipping, retailing and other similar contexts. Machine learning action recognition can be utilized to determine cycles, processes, actions, sequences, objects and or the like in one or more sensor streams. The sensor streams can include, but are not limited to, one or more video sensor frames, thermal sensor frames, infrared sensor frames, and or three-dimensional depth frames. The analytics tool can provide for automatic creation of certificates for each instance of a subject product or service. The certificate can string together snippets of the sensor streams along with indicators of cycles, processes, action, sequences, objects, parameters and the like captured in the sensor streams.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a machine and continuous data set including process data, quality data, specific actor data, and ergonomic data (among others) to create more accurate job assignments that maximize efficiency, quality and worker safety. Using the data set, tasks may be assigned to actors based on objective statistical data such as skills, task requirements, ergonomics and time availability. Assigning tasks in this way can provide unique value for manufacturers who currently conduct similar analyses using only minimal observational data.

Abstract: Workspace coordination systems and methods are presented. A method can comprise: accessing in real time respective information associated with a first actor and a second actor, including sensed activity information; analyzing the information, including analyzing activity of the first actor with respect to a second actor; and forwarding respective feedback based on the results of the analysis. The feedback can includes an individual objective specific to one of either the first actor or the second actor. The feedback includes collective objective with respect to the first actor or the second actor. The analyzing can include automated artificial intelligence analysis. Sensed activity information can be associated with a grid within the activity space. It is appreciated there can be various combinations of actors (e.g., human and device, device and device, human and human, etc.). The feedback can be a configuration layout suggestion. The feedback can be a suggested assignment of a type of actor to an activity.

Abstract: Processing parameters of at least one plate-shaped object, e.g. a semiconductor device or wafer, or a flat panel display, in a processing tool are adjusted depending on which processing device out of at least one set of processing devices has been used for the semiconductor device in a preceding step. A virtual or physical tag is generated, which connects the semiconductor device identification with the processing device identification. This enables a compensation of tool-dependent effects in previous processing of a single device. An example is chemical mechanical polishing prior to lithography, where alignment marks can be deteriorated differently between CMP-units. The amount of compensation is detected and evaluated by metrology tools, which—depending on the sequence of the metrology step relative to the processing step to be adjusted—either feed-forward or feed-backward their results to the processing tool. The yield of semiconductor device production is advantageously increased.
