GAN ENABLED WELDING - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17806356 titled 'GAN ENABLED WELDING
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a method for performing a welding procedure using a virtual image of a structure. The method includes determining the conditions of the welding procedure, generating specifications based on the conditions, and creating a virtual reference shape by modifying the virtual image. The resulting shape of the welding procedure is compared to the virtual reference shape to determine the quality of the welding. Data pertaining to the welding procedure is also stored.
