摘要

This paper presents an AI-based system for improving cycle time measurement in industrial environments, leveraging YOLOv8 for object detection and ByteTrack for tracking. Our non-invasive approach analyzes video from an Azure Kinect camera to calculate cycle times by detecting objects and monitoring their state changes. Tested at the University of Applied Sciences Kempten’s demo plant, the system showcased high accuracy against ground truth data, highlighting its potential to enhance production line monitoring and efficiency significantly. This work contributes to industrial automation by offering a real-time, accurate method for cycle time analysis, promising substantial advancements in manufacturing process optimization.
