P2P Cloud Manufacturing Based on a Customized Business Model: An Exploratory Study

Abstract

To overcome the problems of long production cycle and high cost in the product manufacturing process, a P2P (platform to platform) cloud manufacturing method based on a personalized custom business model has been proposed in this paper by integrating different technologies such as deep learning and additive manufacturing (AM). This paper focuses on the manufacturing process from a photo containing an entity to the production of that entity. Essentially, this is an object-to-object fabrication. Moreover, based on the YOLOv4 algorithm and DVR technology, an object detection extractor and a 3D data generator are constructed, and a case study is carried out for a 3D printing service scenario. The case study selects online sofa photos and real car photos. The recognition rates of sofa and car were 59% and 100%, respectively. Retrograde conversion from 2D data to 3D data takes approximately 60 s. We also carry out personalized transformation design on the generated sofa digital 3D model. The results show that the proposed method has been validated, and three unindividualized models and one individualized design model have been manufactured, and the original shape is basically maintained.

Innovating Household Food Waste Management: A User-Centric Approach with AHP–TRIZ Integration

“…This method is also commonly integrated with other methods, including the TRIZ theory, which systematically analyses problems to come up with innovative solutions [27,28]. Moreover, the development of wireless sensors and intelligent terminals has facilitated various smart services within urban environments [29,30], allowing for more customised requirements [31]. Leveraging the capabilities of ICT devices, this study aims to develop a smart system for urban households based on the AHP-TRIZ method.…”
