Abstract

When processing materials with laser beams, strong radiations and emissions occur, requiring a robust but accurate sensor system. Therefore, multiple sensors, such as an intelligently focusing camera, acoustic sensors and photodiodes, are integrated into a cognitive technical system using Artificial Neural Networks and other techniques for learning how to monitor and control the processing systems.
