Abstract:Â The term artificial intelligence (AI) is associated to any machine that exhibits traits related to a human mind such as learning and problem solving. For the manufacturing, artificial intelligence is reshaping their production process and the way they conduct business. Textile is such an industry where a wide variety of technologies can be applied to advance processes and provide fresh new varieties of clothing fabrics and fibres.
Â
Textile manufacturing businesses with access to historical and real-time operational data can leverage artificial intelligence to improve efficiency and augment the capabilities of their human employees. Automated inspection can be performed by the use of artificial intelligence and image processing for inspection of the quality of the product. Based on the improvement of the machine vision theory, industry can use industrial robot technology to realize the automation of cut pieces cutting and replace manual labour. Artificial intelligence is the field of study that deals with the synthesis and analysis of computational agents that act intelligently. One area of apparel manufacturing where artificial intelligence improves quality control is grading of yarn and other base materials. Automation in garment product is becoming a reality due to technical development and the use of modelling and simulation. Artificial intelligence is one of the technologies that can help in extensive data management as it uses the gained information from big data machine to do things that once were the human domain.
Keywords: Artificial intelligence, smart textiles, new technologies, fabric inspection, sewing technology, digital components, quality control.
