AI-Assisted Repair
A handy companion making repair easy and accessible.
Our Solution
We aim to create a software that can guide and assist you in every aspect of electronic repair. It will employ a modern, state-of-the-art Artificial Intelligence (AI) to analyze real-time image data.
It communicates with our servers to recognize real-world objects and electrical components, and provides the user with visual hints and guides on how to safely and appropriately handle them (see our privacy policy for any concerns).
| Relevance | Appropriateness | Feasibility of solution |
|---|---|---|
| Norway is #1 when it comes to electronic waste per inhabitant.[6] Norway is good at recycling electronics, but we can make significant improvements when it comes to repairing electronics instead of simply buying more. | Our solution is easy to use because of its augmented reality user interface, giving the user a precise guide on each step required to repair common electronic equipment. Usage of the technology is available on most smart-phones and vr equipment as well as smart glasses. | Training and developing the AI is an iterative process. The AI needs Gigabytes of data to learn the different problems electronic devices can have, as well as their respective solutions. The AI will grow organically over time, under controlled testing |
UN SDG 13: Climate Action
We believe that by empowering individuals to repair and construct electronics instead of buying and throwing away, we can contribute to saving the environment. Read more about the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals here. We believe our solution may help with other goals as well, such as #4, #5, #8, #9, #10, and #12.
Smart Glasses
Glasses have long been a symbol for intelligence, but now we want to literally put intelligence in glasses. A pair of glasses with two front-facing cameras, and laser technology, allows us to capture the reality in front of the user, and super-impose imagery that's helpful to the wearer when performing repairs.
