BGSU and Actual Reality advance AI research for glass manufacturing
A BGSU-led research program brings university and industry teams together to apply AI to glass-furnace performance and energy efficiency.
Applied AI for a demanding industrial process
Bowling Green State University is leading a multi-year research effort within the Northwest Ohio Glass Innovation Hub to improve process controls and energy efficiency in glass melting. Actual Reality Technologies is collaborating with the university on the applied AI and data-modeling work.
Why it matters
Glass furnaces operate in extreme conditions where complete sensor coverage is difficult. The research explores how data-driven methods can infer missing process information and balance multiple operating objectives without exposing proprietary implementation details.
