Make machine perception usable without pretending a model output is already physical truth.

A vision model flags a defect that one sensor sees and another does not. MAXACOR keeps the raw observations, calibration, model release and review decision together until the evidence is strong enough to act. Prometheus owns model internals and releases; MAXACOR owns embodied evidence, validation and safety-bounded use.

## When it matters

A vision model flags a defect that one sensor sees and another does not. MAXACOR keeps the raw observations, calibration, model release and review decision together until the evidence is strong enough to act.

### Section 1

col Title: Perception Evidence

col Cont: A defect candidate remains traceable to the exact image, model and inspected unit. Reviewers can challenge the result without losing the source observation.

### Section 2

col Title: Sensor Fusion

col Cont: Vision, force and position sensors disagree during assembly. The system shows the competing evidence instead of averaging away the fault.

### Section 3

col Title: Calibration and Validation

col Cont: A camera remains online after its calibration expires. The feed can stay visible while automated quality use is blocked.
