Volvo Group | Open Invitation to Collaborate

The Volvo Group is looking for mature startups that would like to collaborate and help them with such tasks:

– Locate quality deviations in the manual assembly processes without the need for manual quality checks.
– Positioning and validation of product and equipment
– Mobile and flexible Information devices
– Need to get process status from manual assembly processes. Need to collect info on the position and status of operators, tools and parts
– Detect leakages of air and fluids on our products in the process

– Cognitive load management
– Built-in quality
