Eider Mendoza and Unai Andueza, representatives of the Provincial Council of Gipuzkoa, visited Biele‘s facilities in Urrestilla to learn about their new industrial inspection system based on artificial intelligence and quantum technology.

Eider Mendoza, General Deputy of Gipuzkoa, and Unai Andueza, Deputy for Economic Promotion and Strategic Projects, visited the facilities of the company Biele, located in the Larrañaga industrial estate in Urrestilla. There, they learned about the “pioneering system” for industrial inspection created using artificial intelligence (AI) and quantum technology. The Provincial Council, through its Gipuzkoa Quantum program, has granted aid of 70,261 euros to Biele Group for the development of this system.

Alongside Txomin Andonegi, director of Biele Group; Agosti Aranburu, technology director; Naiara Aldazabal, human resources director; and Olatz Galarza, general director of Biele Digital, the provincial representatives analyzed the project being developed at this machine tool company, along with its innovation strategy and the challenges it faces.

The focus of the meeting was to follow up on the project launched with the support of the Gipuzkoa Quantum program. With the new system being developed at Biele, “an advanced visual inspection system based on optimized artificial intelligence will be developed, capable of efficiently integrating into automated production lines and ensuring real-time and precise detection of defects in manufactured parts.” The company has used quantum-inspired techniques aimed at “understanding and optimizing artificial vision models,” and this “innovative approach” will allow for “deploying advanced algorithms in industrial environments with limited computational resources.”

According to the provincial institution, the practical application of technologies like those being developed at Biele will “strengthen key processes related to the automation, digitalization, and control of industrial quality.”…
