Platform Concepts

Cheetah is a platform for creating and running automated quality inspection programs for advanced manufacturing. We tailor our system to meet your inspection needs — including custom hardware and analysis designed to enforce critical quality constraints.

Shown above is our Cobot Scanner — one of three base configurations, alongside Gantry and Rack-Mounted hardware scanners, each customized to the application. See the Hardware Platform for the full lineup.

A few terms appear throughout these docs:

• A program is the definition for how to perform an inspection.
• A program run is a program executed once against a single part.
• Each program run produces a set of artifacts — the quality report, its quality checks, and any defects found — which together form a complete digital record of the quality inspection outcome.
