AI at the Bosch semiconductor plant in Reutlingen, Germany

Robert Bosch Venture Capital GmbH (RBVC) , one of the largest corporate investors from Europe, specializes in innovative technology start-ups. The portfolio of the VC subsidiary of the Bosch Group includes more than 50 companies, mainly in the fields of artificial intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (AIoT), semiconductors or quantum computing. RBVC invests up to 25 million euros in each of these young start-ups and supports them with know-how and the network of the technology and service company. The picture shows possible applications of AI, such as in the planning of production processes in highly automated chip factories like the Bosch semiconductor plant in Reutlingen. This allows wafers to be steered through up to 1000 processing steps in a time- and cost-saving manner. This increases wafer throughput by five percent, and the investment pays for itself after just three months. Reprinting for editorial purposes free of charge with the note "Photo: Bosch".
