I'm an engineer at company that injection molds parts for medical and industrial devices. This seems extremely promising.

Can your scene generator handle things like custom tooling? For example if I were to place a part to be inspected on a clear acrylic jig, could the model be trained to look through the acrylic?

We're currently already using a vision system to measure certain features on the parts, can your models be applied to generic images, or does it require integration with the camera?

How does the customer communicate the types and probable locations of potential defects? Or do you perform some sort of mold simulation to predict them? Likewise how does the customer communicate where defects are critical versus non-critical?

Finally how does pricing work? Does it scale based on part size, or does the customer select how many variations or do you do some analysis ahead of time and generate a custom quote? Is it a one time cost or is it an ongoing subscription? Could you ballpark a price range for generating a model for a part roughly 3.5 inches in diameter and 1.5 inches tall with moderate complexity?

Feel free to reach out to the email in my profile if you'd like to discuss a little more in depth.

Regarding pricing: we we charge at a per-model basis -- so the workflow when you're ready to retool your line, send us the CAD and we'll send you the defect detector model and the bill. We're still working out if there's some sort of "enterprise tier" for folks like CMs who are flipping through molds almost as quickly as it takes to heat up/cool down a machine

Pricing is custom and is a dependent on a few key factors like what your quality tolerances are.

In, say, the disc golfing space, you can have wildly different acceptance rates for flashing around the rim of the disc at a manufacturer-by-manufacturer basis

Steph here (the guy from the video) - yep we can handle custom tooling pretty easily in general. Usually what we're simulating is robot arms (think scaras with vacuum grippers), acrylic might be a bit fiddly and take some tuning but I bet we can handle it just fine.

Nothing special required from the camera - but it's nice if we know the camera parameters before hand (sensor size, focal length) so we can make sure we generate images matching what that camera spits out.

Right now all the part-based communication is just "email us/jump on a quick call" - in the future I want to make it a self service UI where customers can mark things out.
