DSPE Knowledgeday
Learn how AI in Engineering develops at ASML, Sioux and TU/e
About this event
On November 5th we are organizing a knowledgeday for members of DSPE to inform them about the (im-) possibilities of applying AI in mechanical- and system design. The program will combine three different views and a number of practical use cases.
Intended audience: precision engineers and system engineers.
Theme: “AI & (mechanical) design”
This knowledge exchange afternoon is intended to inform the DSPE members about the (im-) possibilities of applying AI in mechanical- and system design, from three different views and a number of practical use cases. Intended audience: precision engineers and system engineers.
Speakers:
1. Prof. dr. Theo Hofman, TU Eindhoven
