Let’s build it!

Engineering AI for the physical world

Built on years of Physical AI experience, our approach keeps projects focused, manages uncertainty, and creates a clear path from prototype to production.

From proof to production

Artificial Intelligence is evolving rapidly. Turning research into reliable industrial systems requires more than adopting the latest model.

At VBTI, we understand that uncertainty is part of every industrial AI project. Our approach manages that uncertainty in a structured and disciplined way, keeping projects focused while building the knowledge needed for the next phase.

A three-step flowchart illustrates the process from proof of principle, labeled as 4-6 weeks, exploration and requirements, to a demonstrator stage, 3-12 months, functional prototype, and finally to production, 6-18 months, market-ready system, with icons representing research, testing, and manufacturing.

Projects to inspire

AI proves itself in practice. The following VBTI projects show how Physical AI delivers measurable results in demanding production environments. Each started with a concrete operational challenge and resulted in a working system.

  • Adaptive Harvest Optimization System

    Impact: Higher yield, reduced crop damage and more stable harvesting performance across different fields and seasons.­

  • High-tech Surface Inspection

    Impact: Reduced false rejects and improved detection consistency.

  • Scientists wearing protective suits, hair covers, and gloves working with lab equipment in a greenhouse or plant research facility.

    Robotic Leaf Cutting System

    Impact: Consistent cutting quality and increased operational efficiency.

  • Person in a yellow hoodie operating a computer with a colorful gradient display, in a workshop or lab setting.

    Industrial Quality Control Automation

    Impact: Higher throughput, improved traceability and consistent quality assurance.

  • A man sitting at a desk in front of a large computer monitor, working on 3D modeling or graphics display of a broccoli, with green broccoli-shaped plush toys on the desk. The office space includes various work-related items and decorations.

    Self-learning Broccoli Sorting Line

    Impact: The system processes thousands of products per day while reducing manual inspection. Grading becomes more consistent, resulting into higher yields for the farmer and less cost.

  • Two men are working with a large blue mobile technology unit in an agricultural field, with plastic-covered rows of plants and trees in the background.

    Adaptive Asparagus Harvesting System

    Impact: Higher yield, less crop damage and fewer false positives.­

  • A 3D printer with a transparent cover positioned on a wooden table, with a spool of black filament on the side, in an indoor setting.

    AI-driven Insole Inspection System

    Impact: Early defect detection, faster print recovery, reduced material waste and higher productivity.

AI technology that delivers

Turning AI into reliable systems requires more than project-based development. It requires reusable technology, structured workflows and continuous improvement. At VBTI, these capabilities are built into everything we deliver. From AI platforms to autonomous inspection systems, our technology forms the foundation for consistent performance in real-world production.

Reliable, traceable inspection for complex production

In high-tech manufacturing, every part matters. But as variation increases and volumes stay low, manual inspection struggles to keep up. ADAM One changes that. Precise, consistent inspection – every time. Avoid rework. Avoid cost. Maintain quality.

Reliable, scalable AI for real-world production

Turning AI into working systems requires more than models. It requires structure, data and continuous iteration. OneDL connects development and deployment into one integrated system. From data collection and training to edge deployment and performance monitoring.

Who we are

We are an established Eindhoven engineering company building AI inside machines. Vision AI, deep learning and control — combined into systems that work in production. Not a research club. Not a startup. A reliable development partner with our own platform and seven years of Physical AI behind us.
