USE OF COMPREHENSIVE ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN PRIMARY INDUSTRY FACILITIES

An automation system (1) determines control data (S′), outputs same to controlled elements (5) of the facility (ANL) and thereby controls the facility (ANL). Sensor devices (2) acquire measurement data (M) of the facility (ANL) and at least partly feed same to the automation system (1) and a man-machine interface (3). Said man-machine interface (3) receives planning data (P) from a production planning system (11) and/or control data (S′) and/or internal data (I) from the automation system (1). The interface outputs the data (M, S′, I) to a person (4). It furthermore receives control commands (S) from the person (4) and forwards them to the automation system (1). The automation system (1) processes the measurement data (M) and the control commands (S) when determining the control data (S′). An artificial intelligence unit (9) receives at least part of the measurement data (M), control data (S′) and/or internal data (I) and the data output to the person (4). It also receives the control commands (S). The artificial intelligence unit (9) processes the data (M, S′, I) and control demands (S) received and determines evaluation results (A) therefrom and makes the latter available to the person (4) and/or to the production planning system (11) and/or sets them for the automation system (1) in the form of control commands (5″) directly or via the man-machine interface (3). The data (M, S′, I) received by the artificial intelligence unit (9) are at least to some extent dimensional data. Said dimensional data (M, S′, I) comprise at least one image captured by a sensor device (2) or an image output via the man-machine interface (3), part of such an image, a time sequence of such images or a time sequence of a part of such images or an acoustic oscillation or an acoustic oscillation spectrum.
