Challenge brief

What you are building

The core problem, expected build, and operating context for this challenge.

Inspect optical weld scanner logs to evaluate weld bead porosity and undercuts against ISO 5817 criteria. Route non-conforming weld seams into localized rework queues and formulate verification evidence dossiers.

Welding Quality Inspector

Ingest 3D weld bead profile scan records containing seam width, depth, and porosity voids.

Evaluate profiles against ISO 5817 weld quality grade acceptance levels.

Queue non-conforming weld segments into localized gouge-and-re-weld work orders.

Synthesize an evidence dossier cross-referencing operator IDs and weld wire batch lots.

Weld seam defect viewer with 3D profile overlays and rework queue assignment buttons.

Synthesize JSON records representing normalized 3D weld seam profile measurements and defect classes. Starter examples below are synthetic. They are not downloaded records.

MoveIt robotics Applies MoveIt geometric shapes and bounding collision volume conventions from Source 1 to weld inspection regions.

langgraph, fastapi, pandas. LangGraph manages stateful transitions between defect detection, rework routing, and final inspector sign-off. Local or cloud LLM to generate clear welding engineer rework instructions and evidence summaries.

Submit runnable source, pinned dependencies, setup commands, a working interface, example outputs, and a recorded end-to-end demo. Include tests and an action log.

Correctly identifies weld seams violating ISO 5817 quality grade B limits.

Generates localized grinding and re-welding path coordinates for operators.

Produces complete defect evidence review dossiers for QA archiving.
