On a mission to enable autonomous precision manufacturing, the vision of Lambda Function personnel is to achieve Level 5 machining autonomy -- a condition in which a CNC machine will no longer need human attention. Essentially, without need for human intervention, using a CAD drawing as input, the machine can make decisions about how to machine a part. To that end - by augmenting machine operators and NC programmers with Artificial Intelligence - the Lamda Function Inc product is an Intelligent Control System (ICS) enabling increasing levels of machining autonomy .
