Custom Symbol Detection
Automating custom symbol detection from architectural floor plans using custom computer vision and spatial reasoning.
1. The Problem
Generic AI models only recognize standard doors or windows and completely fail on trade-specific or proprietary company drawing legends.
2. Input Drawing
Trade drawing PDFs containing custom electrical, plumbing, metalwork, or security legend symbols.
3. AI Pipeline Process
We train custom object detection neural networks on your legend icons and sample plan sets to achieve high recall and precision.
4. Annotated Visual Output
Visual legend overlay highlighting all matched proprietary symbols with bounding boxes and legend key labels.
5. Structured Data Export
JSON array detailing every detected custom symbol type, count, page number, and x/y spatial coordinates.
6. Business Impact
Enables specialized subcontractors and equipment manufacturers to automate proprietary product takeoff and quoting.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can the model detect rotated custom symbols?
Yes. Our data augmentation pipeline trains the vision model to detect symbols at all 360° orientations.
