Once upon a time long time ago the thoughts of Robots and Artifical Intelligence was left to books and science fiction movies.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become a part of our daily endeavors and has changed the way we live our lives.

We now have smart homes where you basically can run your house by just speaking. We see AI used in banking, healthcare, education, to name a few areas.

We see AI used in some manufacturing, yet it is not close to its full potential.

Industry manufacturing will represent a $4 trillion by 2020. These industries consist of aerospace , automobiles, steel, mining, consumer electronics, medical supply, mining, steel, textiles, and many more. In China, not including the rest of the globe, there are over sixty million quality inspectors, costing companies $350 billion per year.

VisionX has a huge opportunity to tap into the quality control of a soon to be $4 trillion manufacturing industry. It typically takes a few months to put the inspection protocol together costing companies anywhere from $40,000-$150,000 to develop the protocol and a minimum of $40,000 to deploy the program. The average rate of accuracy rate in visual defect inspections is around 60-70% by quality inspectors. VisionX will provide AI solutions for visual defects inspections amongst the different industries. Their dataset for these manufacturing industries has over a million images to be used in the to detect imperfections, dents, holes, aged components, etc. Their Dataonomy Algorithm will continue to discover relevant data, which will grow the dataset, therefore constantly improving AI accuracy. By using VisionX's AI solution, it will take days to implement the quality protocol, with a cost saving of at least 30% to develop and deploy the solutions. Accuracy rates will be 95% or better.

One huge obstacle faced by manufacturers is that individually they have different information to set up their quality control protocol. By using VisionX’s AI solution they will have the capability to gather an abundant amount of relevant, high quality copious data to further improve their existing solution.

VisionX will facilitate companies and organizations throughout the manufacturing community to collaborate in creating AI solutions to common challenges at the same time creating customizable solutions for their own more specific use cases.

It is built upon the patented edge computing architecture on a Decentralized AI cloud of the DeepBrain Chain ecosystem and is being incubated by the DeepBrain Chain along with being managed by the executive team members of the DBC foundation.

Incentivizing the contribution to and utilizing the network is broken down into three aspects. Participants will cut their costs by at least 30% by using VisionX AI solutions. Participants will receive VNX tokens for contributing data to the ecosystem. And lastly, through secondary smart contracts, thew will receive VNX for sales of AI solutions built with their data contributions.

The AI solution token incentive is distributed among AI solution/dataset builders 6%, the data contributor 15%, and VisionX Foundation 20%.

VNX Token Metrics

3 billion VNX circulating supply

10 billion total supply

Here is a breakdown of circulating and total supply and the allocations and lockup periods based off information from the WhitePaper.

30%

3 Billion VNX

Allocation to Institutional investment, Community Development and Airdrops

VNX circulating supply is 3 billion. of that 2.5 billion are for institutional investment. .5 billion are for airdrops and community development. I think that is huge that half a billion is being set aside to create and award a community. For us early supporters that is a "Big pat on the back”.

10%

1 Billion VNX

Allocation to Vision X team

10% of VNX tokens=1 billion tokens goes to the Vision X team, but 20% of that 1 billion do not unlock until 2020 which is 2 years after VNX was launched in the markets. Then each month following 5% of those tokens will each month thereafter. So these tokens will not affect the circulating supply for two years from now.

10%

1 Billion VNX

Allocation to Deep Brain Chain

DBC is the incubator of the VNX project and they are allocated 10% of the total tokens which equate to 1 billion VNX. Again the same as the Vision X team allocation the 1 billion do not unlock until 2020 which is 2 years after VNX was launched in the markets. Then each month following 5% of those tokens will each month thereafter. So these tokens will not affect the circulating supply for two years from now.

15%

1.5 Billion VNX

Allocation to Vision X Foundation and Ecosystem

Now 15% of the tokens that equate to 1.5 billion tokens are allocated to the Vision X Foundation and ecosystem. 10% of these tokens are released each quarter after VNX went to market. This means 150 million we be released each quarter starting in Q1 2019. So only 600 million a year will be added to circulating supply. So the full 1.5 billion will take 2 1/2 years to get into circulation.

35%

3.5 Billion VNX

Allocation to Mining X-industry Customers and Partners, AI developers, Contributors of data and service)

In Q1 of 2019, the TestNet should be live and public mining of VNX tokens will start. 35% of the tokens which equates to 3.5 billion VNX will be allocated to mining. In the first 5 years of mining 250 million will be produced each year for the first 5 years which is 1.25 billion tokens. Then every 5 years after that half the 1.25 billion tokens will be produced and every 5 years increments after that 1/2 of the previous total will be mined and so on and so on. With that said the initial 250 million a year will for the first 5 years we would calculate into the circulating supply which is really not much proportionately.

Lastly according to the white paper Vision X will burn up to 50% of coins in circulation with profits they make. (Although there is no schedule posted in White Paper for token burn).

WhitePaper

Overall a very good read. And gets the point across. Real good information here.

Roadmap

Some key milestones to look forward to

Q1 2019

Expand outreach to customers in multiple industries with Visual defect detection.

Development of Hardware/Software for predictive maintenance and robotics pick and place.

Public mining of VNX tokens and tokenomics, TestNet to go live.

Q2-4 2019

MainNet to go live which will connect companies and users of industires.

VNX community boosting with data contributors and business to business partners by way of model/data marketplaces.

Broaden datasets and AI solutions for use cases and different industries.

My Conclusion

Through my research, I find the VisionX project to be very promising. Here are the factors I base my opinion on.

(+)The management and advisors have great resumes to help the project go forward.

(+)The partnerships that they have currently are strong and they are constantly working for new partnerships.

(Neutral) I would like to see a stronger marketing effort to evangelize the VisionX project. Other than passing the word through DBC only a handful articles and information has been circulating around. Need More meet-ups and conventions scheduled. AMA’s scheduled.

(Neutral) Social media efforts are through twitter, reddit, telegram. I would like to see it expanding to other social media sites, facebook, instagram, etc.

(+) The token metrics leave it open to keep the VNX token in demand.

(+) The overall premise of tapping into a industrial market of $4 trillion dollars is a great opportunity. Saving Manufacturers at least 30% of cost, plus working protocol in days vs. months.

(Neutral) The overall roadmap seems broad, I would like to see more concise milestones to be reached.

VNX is only around two weeks old as of this writing so it may not be fair as my opinion expresses. but I do feel that as long as the VNX team works on:

Tuning up their roadmap with more concise times of completion, break down the milestones to attain more exact.

Continuing to agressively create strategic partnerships

Expanding Social and Traditional Marketing efforts

Delivering a working product/service

VNX will be successful going forward, giving the early adopters of VisionX just rewards for their faith in them.

You can pick up VNX on the following exchanges:

Kucoin

Coinbene

LBank
