System on Chip

Join our in-person meetup on April 24th to hear talks from experts on cutting-edge topics across AI, ML, and computer vision. **[Register to reserve your seat.](https://voxel51.com/events/berlin-ai-ml-and-computer-vision-meetup-april-24-2026)** Space is limited! **Date, Time and Location** Apr 24, 2026 5:30 PM - 8:30 PM [MotionLab](https://motionlab.berlin/) Bouchéstraße 12/Halle 20 12435 Berlin **Kaputt: A Large-Scale Dataset for Visual Defect Detection** We present a novel large-scale dataset for defect detection in a logistics setting. Recent work on industrial anomaly detection has primarily focused on manufacturing scenarios with highly controlled poses and a limited number of object categories. Existing benchmarks like MVTec-AD (Bergmann et al., 2021) and VisA (Zou et al., 2022) have reached saturation, with state-of-the-art methods achieving up to 99.9% AUROC scores. In contrast to manufacturing, anomaly detection in retail logistics faces new challenges, particularly in the diversity and variability of object pose and appearance. Leading anomaly detection methods fall short when applied to this new setting. To bridge this gap, we introduce a new benchmark that overcomes the current limitations of existing datasets. With over 230,000 images (and more than 29,000 defective instances), it is 40 times larger than MVTec and contains more than 48,000 distinct objects. To validate the difficulty of the problem, we conduct an extensive evaluation of multiple state-of-the-art anomaly detection methods, demonstrating that they do not surpass 56.96% AUROC on our dataset. Further qualitative analysis confirms that existing methods struggle to leverage normal samples under heavy pose and appearance variation. With our large-scale dataset, we set a new benchmark and encourage future research towards solving this challenging problem in retail logistics anomaly detection. The dataset is available for download under [https://www.kaputt-dataset.com](https://www.kaputt-dataset.com). *About the Speaker* [Sebastian Höfer](https://www.linkedin.com/in/sebastian-h%C3%B6fer-891178121/) is an Applied Science Manager at Amazon Fulfillment Technologies & Robotics, leading machine learning and computer vision research for large-scale robotics and warehouse automation. He received his PhD from the Robotics & Biology Lab at TU Berlin, focusing on Sim2Real transfer and robotic perception. His recent work, “Kaputt: A Large-Scale Dataset for Visual Defect Detection” (ICCV 2025) [37], established a major benchmark for industrial anomaly detection, reflecting his expertise at the intersection of academic research and real-world deployment. **Data Foundations for Vision-Language-Action Models** Model architectures get the papers, but data decides whether robots actually work. This talk introduces VLAs from a data-centric perspective: what makes robot datasets fundamentally different from image classification or video understanding, how the field is organizing its data (Open X-Embodiment, LeRobot, RLDS), and what evaluation benchmarks actually measure. We'll examine the unique challenges such as temporal structure, proprioceptive signals, and heterogeneity in embodiment, and discuss why addressing them matters more than the next architectural innovation. *About the Speaker* [Harpreet Sahota](https://www.linkedin.com/in/harpreetsahota204/) is a hacker-in-residence and machine learning engineer with a passion for deep learning and generative AI. He’s got a deep interest in VLMs, Visual Agents, Document AI, and Physical AI. **Most AI Agents Are Broken. Let’s Fix That** AI agents are having a moment, but most of them are little more than fragile prototypes that break under pressure. Together, we’ll explore why so many agentic systems fail in practice, and how to fix that with real engineering principles. In this talk, you’ll learn how to build agents that are modular, observable, and ready for production. If you’re tired of shiny agent demos that don't deliver, this talk is your blueprint for building agents that actually work. *About the Speaker* [Bilge Yücel](https://www.linkedin.com/in/bilge-yucel/) is a Senior Developer Relations Engineer at deepset, helping developers build agentic AI apps with Haystack. Passionate about AI, she makes complex concepts approachable through hands-on tutorials, both online and at real-life events. **Operationalizing Computer Vision for Overhead Lines: Beyond the Demo** At first glance, visual inspection of high-voltage power lines seems straightforward: collect imagery, run one or two AI models, and report the findings. In practice, moving beyond a proof of concept reveals a range of issues that can make or break a campaign. Common concerns include data quality and coverage, scarcity of the most relevant cases and abundance everywhere else, variations in pylon geometry and asset types across regions, calibration and GIS alignment challenges, and a long tail of edge cases that emerge in real-world operations. This talk introduces Siemens Energy’s end-to-end overhead line inspection solution and shares key learnings from inspecting more than 10,000 km of power lines for real customers across several continents. We will show how raw 2D/3D data is transformed into structured information, delivering insights into asset inventory as well as defects, and supporting maintenance and planning decisions for critical infrastructure. The focus is on the combination of algorithmic building blocks and scalable processing, designed for robustness and consistency at scale, where even low error rates can become operationally significant. *About the Speaker* [Stefan Wakolbinger](https://www.linkedin.com/in/stefan-wakolbinger-aa0ba874/) is the Development Team Lead for AI & Analytics at SIEAERO, Siemens Energy's digital powerline inspection service. He leads the development of cutting-edge AI and analytics solutions that transform aerial powerline inspection through multi-sensor technology. His team creates digital twins of powerline infrastructure, automates fault detection, and monitors vegetation management—making powerline inspection safer, more precise, and more efficient.

**Open Reflection Circle** is a small and intimate women’s gathering in Berlin, where we come together in a cozy café to share, reflect, and connect with one another. In this circle, a small group of around **8–10 women** gathers to spend time in meaningful conversation and reflection. We begin by introducing ourselves and gently creating a space where everyone feels comfortable and welcomed. Through guided reflection prompts, we explore our journeys, our emotions, and the experiences that shape our lives. These prompts are designed to help you open up and reflect more deeply on your thoughts, your dreams, and the challenges you may be navigating. We also include a few light and playful exercises to break the ice and help everyone feel relaxed and connected. The intention is not to create pressure to share, but to create an environment where sharing feels natural and safe. The heart behind the **Open Reflection Circle** is simple: to bring together women who can hold space for each other and remind one another that we are not alone in our journeys. This is a space where we can talk honestly about our lives — our visions, our goals, what we are building, and what sometimes holds us back from taking action. We reflect together on questions such as: Where do we want to go in life? What are we dreaming of creating? What challenges are we facing in our emotional wellbeing or personal growth? By listening to one another’s stories and perspectives, we often discover insights that we might not have seen on our own. You are encouraged to bring a **notebook and pen**, as many women like to take notes from reflections, ideas, and inspiration that arise during the conversation. Toward the end of the gathering, we close with a small and meaningful practice: exchanging short **love letters of gratitude** with each other. These simple messages help us acknowledge the presence of the women in the circle and leave the space with a feeling of appreciation, connection, and warmth. The intention of this circle is not advice or fixing each other’s problems. It is simply to **listen, reflect, learn from one another, and hold space for the beautiful complexity of each woman’s journey.**

Join us for a utopian game-based workshop where food becomes the starting point to imagine fairer, more connected and more sustainable ways of living.

This is a welcoming experience designed for curiosity, connection, and collective imagination. **No previous experience is needed** — just bring yourself as you are. Along the way, you’ll enjoy **organic snacks included** in the experience. **Collaboration:** 25 eur - Includes organic and vegan snacks and facilitation of the game **Language**: English, German, French

Chitta Walks is for people whose days move fast, while the mind never fully lands. Thoughts keep looping even when nothing is urgent. The body moves, but attention is elsewhere. Over time, this disconnect drains clarity and ease. This walk is a simple reset. We meet in Berlin’s Tiergarten and walk at a gentle pace. Parts of the walk are in silence, with light guidance and a few short prompts. The walk itself is the practice, bringing body and mind back into the same moment. No apps. No performance. Just a clear space to slow down and notice what is happening. If you want to slow down without withdrawing from life, join a Chitta Walk. ✨ **What to expect (approx. 90 minutes):** * A short arrival and orientation * A guided silent walk (phones off, no conversation) * One concise science-based impulse on attention or stress * Optional reflection in pairs or small groups * A simple takeaway or experiment for daily life 🚶**Who this is for:** * Professionals, creatives, and people in transition. * People who feel mentally busy and want more clarity and balance. * Those curious about mindfulness, but grounded and practical. * Anyone comfortable with silence and gentle self observation. 🔔 **Practical notes:** * Duration: 60-90 minutes * Wear comfortable shoes and weather-appropriate clothing * No prior experience needed * Group size is limited to keep the space quiet and focused 🧭 **Facilitator:** My name is Partha Sarathi, you can call me PS. I have lived in Berlin for over 12 years. With a background in physics and materials science, my interest in mindfulness grew through personal experience with stress and health challenges. I facilitate the space and structure of the walk, inviting shared exploration rather than instruction. 🤔 **Why Chitta Walks?** Chitta is a Sanskrit word referring to the mind or field of awareness, used here in a practical, non-religious sense. Chitta Walks is about noticing how the mind works by slowing down and walking together. Mindful walking makes thought patterns visible in real time, while moving and sensing in the world. The name points to a simple capacity: noticing what is happening in the mind without immediately trying to fix, judge, or optimize it. 🌿 **Possible effects:** A calmer nervous system. Clearer attention. A felt sense of being more present in your body. Subtle insights into how your mind reacts under everyday conditions. A quieter, more grounded way of moving through the city. **Come as you are. Walk. Notice. Leave with a little more space inside.**

Nice! You are looking for real long time friendship! You might have already lived in Berlin or other big cities and experienced the "Anonymous" culture for a while. Meeting random people over and over and never see the same person again! In order to find "Real Long Term Friendship" in Berlin, do as follows: * You should not care how many people are joining this meetup. You RVSP. Even if only one person is joining. Because if everyone are waiting for everyone else to RVSP, nobody joins and nobody finds a new friend. * You do not care how many people of the opposite sex are joining. You are looking for friends. Finding the best romantic partner in the world, while avoiding not very attractive others, can be your other goal, for another time. Here we are looking for Friends. Real ones. * You are going to risk a very precious property of yours: Your time! Yes, there are thousands of opportunities in Berlin, there might be a rock concert for free, a birthday party you might miss, an important person might call you and invite you spontaneously, but you never find new friends until you decide to risk your time and meet people anyway. "I will check my calendar and get back to you" also does not work. Commit your time and spend it. Trust me, you won't go bankrupt ;-) * You are ready to use your phone as a real phone! You might have been using your phone as a tablet to visit Instagram and Facebook and watch movies. But if you want to find friends, you must know that people might take your phone number and give you theirs. That means they will Call you! And you have to pick up the phone and answer it. If you want to find new friends, you must be ready to do something really hard for the first time after years: Call people first, and if they called you: Answer your phone! * You are going to meet some people twice! That's the point of friendship. We already can experience random encounters with random people in random places one at a time. But that is not called friendship. If you want friends, you must be ready to meet the same person more than once. If you agree with above, RVSP and COME! You will meet other people who think the same way. P.S: Now that you've read all the way down to here, I suggest you [watch this animation](https://player.vimeo.com/video/547249272?h=22f3dd0f6f).
