Mirtec's Approach to Raw Data: The 'Sushi Principle'

Reading time ( words)

During productronica 2019, the I-Connect007 Editorial Team met with some of the industry's top executives, managers, and engineers.

In this video interview, part of the productronica coverage, the I-Connect007 team speaks with Brian D’Amico, president of Mirtec Corporation.

Editor Pete Starkey and Brian D’Amico discuss the company’s new Alpha system, designed for the automotive market. D’Amico explains why Mirtec is focusing on providing customers with raw data instead of “cooked” data, what he terms the “sushi principle.” He says that the system is able to pick up tiny defects that would otherwise be filtered away if the system were not using raw data. D’Amico also discusses their use of artificial intelligence, and some of the possible benefits from using AI going forward.

The productronica event is one of the world’s leading trade fairs for electronics development and production. The productronica trade fair is held on alternating years, at the Messe München in Munich, Germany. The next productronica will be held November 16-19, 2021.
