How Vision Inspection Enhances Auto Industry in Smart Manufacturing

The automotive industry is undergoing a major transformation. India has witnessed a massive change and growth in this segment. The Indian auto parts industry is witnessing a massive growth, it marked a 23% growth in 2023 and is contributing 2.3% to India’s GDP.

Everything from smart manufacturing to sustainable practices will strongly impact how the automotive industry will function in the future. One of the key technologies that is pivotal in redefining the auto industry’s efficiency is the vision inspection system.

Stringent quality practices are a must for automotive part manufacturers. The visual inspection system has become integral for smart manufacturing processes. It enables the manufacturer to achieve unparalleled reliability, efficiency and productivity. This blog will unfold the details of how a vision inspection system can enhance the automotive industry.

What is a Vision Inspection System?

Before delving deeper into how vision inspection systems can enhance smart manufacturing processes, let’s examine what makes this technology crucial for the automotive sector.  Vision Inspection System, or Machine Vision, is a technology that uses cameras and image processing software to inspect and measure objects in real-time.

It works on similar principles as the human visual system but with better efficiency and precision. It helps identify defects, inconsistencies, or deviations from the desired specifications. One of the unique propositions of this technology is that it is highly versatile and is not just limited to the automotive industry. There are several other applications of the same. 

Implementing Vision Inspection System Ensures:

Quality products

Increased production efficiency

It helps in reducing the cost

Compliance with the safety standards

Types Of Vision Inspection Systems Used In the Auto Industry

1. Laser Marking Inspection

This helps mark identification codes, logos, and labels on automotive components. It ensures accuracy by verifying its position and quality.

2. Barcode Scanning

Another type includes the scanning of barcodes. It is used for tracking and tracing of the automotive parts. Also, it ensures effective inventory management and reduces the probability of errors.

3. Pattern Matching Inspection

As the name indicates, this method identifies specific patterns and shapes of the automotive components. It is integral for the quality control and ensures that each component fits perfectly.  This ensures seamless functioning of the manufacturing process.

4. Bearing Inspection

Bearings are critical components in vehicles; their integrity is essential for safety and performance. Vision Inspection Systems can detect even minor defects in bearings, such as cracks or irregularities, ensuring that only high-quality components make it into the assembly line.

How Vision Inspection Enhances Auto Industry in Smart Manufacturing

1. Improved Quality Control and Defect Detection

One of the key reasons companies rely on vision inspection system is because it ensures precise quality control. The vision inspection system canteen even the minutest of errors or flaws otherwise invisible to the human eye. Identifying the defence early in manufacturing can help overcome the issues and reduce the probability of faulty products. This also helps in maintaining the brand quality and ensures better customer satisfaction.

2. Enhanced Efficiency and Production Speed

With the growing demand in the automotive sector, automotive companies are always on their toes to address these demands. With modern technologies like vision inspection systems, companies can ensure real-time inspection. With effective quality control, they can overcome the delay of manual quality checks and also reduce the labour cost. This overall increases productivity and helps in maintaining consistency. This further increases the product efficiency.

3. Real-time Monitoring and Data Analysis

In the case of smart manufacturing, the company heavily relies on the data. This data will give them an analysis of the production process, allowing the manufacturers to gain valuable insight. By analysing the data generated during the inspection process, the companies can identify trends, pinpoint areas of improvement and make data-driven decisions, which can help gain a competitive edge.

4. Cost Reduction and Resource Optimization

By reducing the occurrence of defects and minimizing rework, Vision Inspection Systems contribute to cost reduction. Additionally, the efficiency gains achieved through automation and real-time monitoring lead to resource optimization. Manufacturers can allocate their workforce and resources more effectively, making their operations leaner and more cost-efficient. This, in turn, allows for competitive pricing while maintaining profit margins.

5. Compliance with Industry Regulations

For an automotive company to gain a competitive edge, it must adhere to the quality and comply with the safety regulations. The vision inspection system makes it easier to ensure complete consistency and accuracy while inspecting the components and products. Thus, the manufacturers can demonstrate their commitment to quality standards, reducing the risk of regulatory penalties.

Trends in Vision Inspection Technology

Technological implementation is pivotal for any organisation to stay ahead of the curve. The vision inspection system can further be improvised with the integration of modern technologies like:

Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning

We cannot separate AI and machine learning when discussing technological revolution. Technologies like artificial intelligence and machine learning drive the modern-day revolution. With these technologies, it becomes easier to analyse the trends in the past and adapt new methods that can help improve the vision inspection process. AI-powered vision systems are becoming more sophisticated and capable of handling complex inspection tasks.

Enhanced Connectivity and Industry 4.0

The vision inspection system has become crucial for automotive companies. It is an integral part of Industry 4.0 initiatives. The data exchange is playing a pivotal role in this. These systems are increasingly integrated into the broader manufacturing ecosystem, allowing seamless communication between machines, robots, and other equipment. This interconnectedness enables real-time decision-making and the optimization of the entire production process.

Miniaturization and Portability

Advancements in camera technology and miniaturization have made it possible to deploy Vision Inspection Systems in smaller, more challenging spaces. Portable vision systems can be used for on-site inspections and maintenance, enhancing efficiency and flexibility.

Conclusion

As the technology continues to evolve, its applications will transform the industry and the process. Vision inspection system has become an indispensable tool for the automotive industry. Its ability to deliver consistent quality control, enhance production efficiency and real-time insights helps the automotive company comply with the quality standards, keeping them ahead of the curve.

A thousand connections fired, a thousand little servos testing a new body. The resulting feedback was clear. The legs were standard issue, as was the right arm and head. The foreign object was the left arm, and a section of the diaphragm.

STATUS UPDATE:

MACHINE ID: VI

LOCATION: UNKNOWN

CURRENT OBJECTIVE: DETERMINE SITUATION

V1 rotated its head, inspecting the changes. The new arm resembled their right in form, but it was a completely new material, golden and glowing.

It then glanced up.

Standing beside it, holding a clip-board, was an angel.

Prior experience determined this was a new subtype. It had a more human form than a Virtue, but it didn’t have enough armor to be an arch-angel. A gold and silver helm with a design that mimicked rings of eyes. Some basic vambraces. All the rest of their form was covered by cloth drapings.

ERROR

PRIORITY OVERRIDE

REASON: FUEL RESERVES AT 0%

NEW OBJECTIVE: FIND FUEL

Prior experience indicated that V1 would be strapped down to the table. It was standard procedure when working with blood-fueled machines. It would be idiotic to wake up a hungry machine and not at least restrain it. V1 prepared to break the restraints.

V1 was not strapped down. It automatically discarded that strain of data-analysis, its core frantically trying to conserve energy. Energy that it shouldn’t have, because it didn’t have any blood.

CURRENT OBJECTIVE: BLOOD

The angel didn’t have any time to react before they were on the ground, V1 on top of them. The new arm was no Knuckleblaster, but it still smashed in the angel’s chest. Crimson splashed upwards, and its strikes grew in speed. Over and over again, it crushed glowing flesh, fists trading blows with ruthless efficiency.

Only when the blood stopped flowing, and the flesh stopped glowing, did V1 stop hitting.

FUEL RESERVES AT 41%

DATA ANALYSIS:

MANKIND IS DEAD

HELL IS GONE.

BLOOD IS FUEL.

THIS UNIT WAS FUNCTIONING AT 0%.

RESULTS INCONCLUSIVE

NEW OBJECTIVE: FIND A WEAPON

It scanned its surroundings. The work-station it had been laying on was nothing more than cut stone. Around it, someone has set up various tables, which held unknown tools and substances. The tables were definitely a newer addition– everything else in the room was covered in a fine layer of dust, including the blood-splattered floor. The room was a square of sharp stone angles with V1’s slab in the center. The only thing else of interest were a series of shelves cut directly into the rock walls.

Most of the shelves held crumbling books, irrelevant. But just behind where V1’s head had lain, on a particularly large shelf, were guns**. Large ones, small ones, even a few that looked like they’d been pulled right off the back of other machines.

V1 started throwing them into its wings with gleeful abandon. It had just finished shoving a massive rail cannon into its storage when the data connected; these weren’t random guns, these were its** guns. And, if its internal storage systems were working correctly, they had ammo.

It continued shoving them into its storage, and then began exploring the room.

NEW OBJECTIVE: ESCAPE

There was no clear door for the angel to have come. Could it have teleported inside? Possibly, but V1 was not sure the tables were small enough for an angel to teleport. Especially one of a lower power-level. Prior experience suggested there was a relation between matter moved and power expended. V1 noticed a break in pattern; there were only shelves on three walls of the room. It jumped over to the wall, and punched it with the new arm.

It flashed gold, and the stone cracked. The sound echoed like a gunshot in the small chamber.

It considered the glowing arm, and labeled it Godpiercer. Godpiercer was sending what V1 could only interpret as off-signals for certain temporary conditions. It switched a random one on.

The arm prompted a further selection:

SPECIFY FORM:

MEMORY/FEEDBACKER

MEMORY/KNUCLEBLASTER

MEMORY/WHIPLASH

FEEDBACKER OK

The golden metal glowed brighter, and began to twist and warp. Metal plates wrenched apart, light growing in a sudden and violent osmosis. A second, more familiar arm, tore itself free from its sibling. “Feedbacker” glowed with an alien light. V1 made a quick inspection; a near perfect copy.

FUEL RESERVES AT 39%

Immediately, the machine switched the function off. The mimic arm was reabsorbed instantly, but the burnt fuel didn’t return.

NEW OBJECTIVE: DETERMINE MECHANISM USED BY ANGEL. IF FUEL DROPS TO 37% BEFORE OBJECTIVE COMPLETION, THEN SUMMON KNUCKLEBLASTER AND DESTROY WALL.

It returned to the body, and reached down to tear the skull off, before stopping. It was not in Hell, and if the angel had to be decapitated to use the mechanism, it wouldn’t have been able to revive V1. It settled instead for picking up the entire corpse and hucking it towards the wall.

No result. It scanned the rest of the room.

There was nothing else except the books and the angel’s tools. It began pulling books off the shelves, scanning through them as quickly as its processor could handle.

No relevant data. Many of the books were poorly constructed, damaged or otherwise unreadable. It was mostly disconnected sentence fragments, with no clear relation to the stone chamber or the construction. Its processor flagged some passages as containing familiar phrases and names. They were disregarded as irrelevant to the current objective.

Nothing. It returned to the angel’s tools, and began scanning and categorizing them. Group context suggested they were tools for repairing complex machinery and robotics, though many of them were completely alien.

It picked up a screwdriver. It threw it at the wall. The screwdriver tinged off, falling onto the angel’s body with a slightly wet thunk.

V1 began throwing all of the tools at the wall.

It succeeded in destroying a good amount of the angel’s tools, and the carefully pristine room was now a complete wreck. There was no other effect.

Its fuel reserves ticked down.

NEW OBJECTIVE: BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF THAT WALL

It sprang to the new vacated bookshelf on the far side, its legs crouched, springs coiled. It summoned Knuckleblaster, the gold and red mass pulling free with the sound of a sword unsheathing. Then it powered its legs, aiming right for the spot it had previously cracked.

Shining metal met stone with the force of a bullet shot at point-blank, and the wall shattered.

A moment later, the machine stood up out of the rubble, and scanned its surroundings. It was dusk, and V1 was in a forest.

This was not a visual error. It double-checked.

RUN DIAGNOSTIC

An Unexpected Alliance (Arcane fanfic)

Summary: Viktor has an unexpected visitor and helps her with a prosthetic. They bond over shared experiences and form an alliance.

Notes: A late entry to @arcanefandomweek ‘s Arcane Visions Week 1: Alliances. I need Viktor and Jinx to interact in season 2. Maybe they’d be friends. Maybe they’d just clash and collide. This is an exploration of how it might go. Inspired by a few trailers and promo posters, as well as some league lore; so beware potential spoilers!

Timeline wise… who knows? Just having fun with possibilities here.

TW: loss of limb, fictional drug (shimmer), cults, human experimentation

AO3 link

~*~

Viktor glanced up as a flash of blue burst into his workshop. Long blue hair. Jinx. Of course it was only a matter of time before she found him, whether he wanted her to or not. He set aside his tools and braced for the whirlwind.

She darted around the room, inspecting various prosthetics and chattering on about… something. He failed to see any train of logic, but she didn’t seem to be talking to him so he didn’t bother trying to decipher it.

“Please be careful not to break anything, some of these items are very fragile,” Viktor warned, before she could do anything too drastic.

Jinx turned to face him, eyes glowing purple. Shimmer. “Oh, there you are! Mr. Machine Herald! Almost didn’t see ya with all…” She gestured to the various parts and half-made prototypes surrounding him. He supposed his metal parts did blend in, but he rarely wanted to be found in the first place.

His gaze flicked to her left hand. Her middle finger was missing, the wound still leaking a mixture of blood and shimmer despite a crude bandage. “You’re hurt,” he blurted. “Let me help.”

She grinned. “I was hoping you’d offer! Can I get a cool upgrade? Like a giant middle finger with a laser or a blaster!”

“Let us start with the basics, hm? May I see?” he asked, holding out a hand.

She skipped over and slapped her injured hand into his. He winced in sympathy, then looked closer, taking a clean damp cloth in his free hand.

“How did this happen?” Viktor asked as he carefully removed the soaked bandage and cleaned the wound. He’d seen worse, it would likely be a simple fix.

“Stupid Piltie shot it off with stupid fancy gun. I could make a waaay better one!”

“A fancy gun, hm? What kind of fancy?”

“Oh something Hextech-y; it was glowing blue. But it didn’t explode, which is boring.”

Hextech. Jayce was making more weapons. It shouldn’t be a surprise, but still it stung. They both had failed to carry through on their promises. At least Viktor was trying to do good, but Jayce seemed to have fallen even further. Traitor.

“Hey, hey, easy on the grip!”

Viktor glanced back at her hand and loosened his grip. Something had to be wrong with the wiring of his hand to cause it to tighten so. “Apologies.” Then he cleared what remained of his throat and asked, “When did you last take shimmer? I am not judging— I have taken it myself— but it will affect how we continue, so please be truthful.”

“Hm? Oh! I don’t take it! Not like that, pfft no. The doctor did some funky experiment to save my life a while ago and I’ve been purple ever since!”

Viktor stiffened. “The doctor did this to you? Singed?”

“Yep!” Jinx nodded emphatically.

Another experiment. A human experiment. His gut twisted. Viktor knew Singed had done terrible things in the name of science. Shimmer was one of them, a double-edged sword. But this seemed a step further. Shimmer created within a human body. Had she become the new Rio? Gods, he hoped not.

Viktor shook his head. “Eh, anyway, would you prefer the prosthetic to be fused to your flesh or easily replaceable?”

Jinx tapped her chin. “Hmm… replaceable. That way I can make my own upgrades!”

“Understandable.” Viktor wrapped the wound with a clean bandage. The shimmer still in her system would likely help it heal faster regardless. He used the Hexclaw as an extra hand to make a few measurements and jot them down, then moved to find the necessary parts.

“Are you really all robot?” Jinx asked.

“Eh… not entirely.” He shrugged. “Perhaps eventually I will be.”

“That’s what your cult wants, right? The ‘Glorious Evolution’ or whatever?”

He scoffed. “They are not my cult. I do not ask for it, I do not want them following me.”

“I didn’t ask for mine either!” Jinx laughed. “Funny how that works. Just wake up one day and boom! Everyone dying their hair blue and begging for prosthetics!”

“Mm. These things are out of our control.”

“Don’t they listen to you?”

Viktor shrugged again. Mostly he avoided them and pretended they didn’t exist. “I have tried occasionally, but they find a way to twist my words to suit their purposes.”

“Mine would set Piltover ablaze for me if I asked,” Jinx said. “No one wanted anything to do with me before. My inventions never worked, or they exploded. I messed everything up.” Her voice cracked.

Viktor looked back at her, some small part of him softening. Another misfit, shunned by society. “No one really wanted me around either. I was a cripple and a foreigner. I spent much of my time away from my peers, but I preferred it that way. Someone I once knew told me that loneliness is the byproduct of a gifted mind, one of the few things he may have been right about. And sometimes we learn better from our failures than our successes, however painful it may be.”

Jinx’s eyes widened, staring at him. “Really?”

“It’s true.” Viktor hesitated a moment, trying to think of something else to reassure her. “I have seen your bombs. The design was very impressive, unique and effective. It was a challenge to defuse. You are very intelligent, Jinx. If you ever wish to put your mind to less destructive purposes, I would be glad to work with you.”

Jinx shrugged. “Maybe.”

“Here, watch.” Viktor pieced together a prosthetic finger, trimmed a bit to fit to her measurements. He attached it to a partial glove and held it out to her. Every step he explained, just in case she was interested. Perhaps it would help. “Try this on. It should fit underneath your other glove, if you wish.”

Jinx snatched it from his hand, looking at it curiously. “That’s it?”

“For a basic prosthetic, yes. As you said, you can make upgrades as you see fit. For now, try it on, see if it works.”

Jinx put on the prosthetic, and he guided her through a few tests to ensure it was functioning properly. Once she passed the tests, Jinx flipped him off with the prosthetic. “It’s perfect!”

“Good, I’m glad you like it. Is there anything else?”

Jinx was quiet for a few seconds, fiddling with the prosthetic. “Sevika said I could unite the whole of Zaun if I tried.” She looked back at him. “Hey, we should unite our cults!”

Viktor squinted at her. “Unite our cults?”

“Yeah! Make an alliance!” Jinx grinned at him.

“I have no interest in attacking Piltover.”

Jinx blew a raspberry like a child. “Boring! Why not?” She narrowed her eyes. “Because of your fucking Piltie? Your Hextech partner? The Golden Boy of Progress? Are you still on his side?”

Viktor exhaled slowly, the fans of his ventilator whirring. He had to be careful. Antagonizing Jinx and her cult would be a terrible idea. “This isn’t about him. I do not wish to fight anyone, on either side. I am a scientist, not a soldier. My creations are to improve lives, not take them. I am only wary of what such an attack would mean for the common people, on both sides. Wars rarely end well.”

He took a breath, continuing before she could interrupt, “Perhaps we could simply have a truce between us? You tell your cult not to antagonize mine, and I do the same. If any of your cult require prosthetics, I would be happy to supply.” He would help anyone who stumbled into his workshop or requested his assistance, but still it was an olive branch. Whether his cult would listen was another matter, but he hoped they would.

Jinx tilted her head to the side, seeming to stare straight through him. “That’s all you want? Nothing about your Piltie?”

“Jayce is mine to deal with. I would greatly prefer if you leave him alive.”

“I can kidnap him for you and bring him here!”

“That is not necessary.”

“But you’d rather he be kidnapped than killed, right?”

That was undoubtably a threat. Fine. Jayce would be safer with him than any chem-barons. Viktor inclined his head. “Very well. If the opportunity arises to capture Jayce without severely harming him, you may bring him to me.”

“Great! It’s a deal!” Jinx bounced to her feet. “I’ve got something of yours. You gotta have something of mine now! Can I paint on you?”

Viktor hesitated. “What would you like to paint?”

“Just some blue clouds and stuff. You know, the more hopeful version of my symbol.” Jinx brandished a blue paint pen. “You can’t wash it off!”

It could be worse. “If you must. Just.. nothing too extreme.”

Jinx grinned and climbed on top of his chair to get closer, drawing on his metal chest plate and over his shoulder. Viktor remained perfectly still, watching her work. Blue swirls and clouds and sparkles. He could pretend it represented Hextech if asked. Or perhaps it would be better to admit their strange alliance.

Jayce would hate it.

Viktor craned his neck as she moved towards his back, careful not to jostle her. “How much are you drawing?”

“What, change your mind? Gotta make sure everyone can see it!”

“I did not change my mind. I am only curious.”

“Hold onto your horses, I’ll almost done!”

Viktor went still and silent once more. It was only paint. Jinx’s graffiti was everywhere in Zaun, hardly anything drastic.

“Ta-da!” Jinx hopped to her feet with a flourish. “What do you think?”

Viktor looked over the drawings, trying to think of something complimentary. It wasn’t his style, but he had no intention of insulting her. “You certainly have an artistic flair.”

“Thanks!” Suddenly she was hugging him.

Viktor froze for a moment, processing whether it was an attack or harmless. If she meant harm, he would certainly be dead already. He awkwardly wrapped his arms around her. When was the last time anyone had showed him such affection?

“Careful, you might smudge your drawings,” he said, half a joke.

“Don’t worry, it dries fast.” A moment later, she pulled away. “Well, see you around!” With a playful salute, she was gone.

Viktor watched her go. Emotions were strange illogical things, but perhaps it was not all terrible.

The Eclipses Show

Pairings: None

Word Count: 1,232 Words

Summary: Eclipse wakes up in a forest nine months after his death. Eclipse also wakes up in a daycare a day after his death. Turns out, Solar now has to deal with both of them.

Warnings: Near Death Experiences, Coma, Injury, Limb Loss, Eye Trauma, Head Trauma, Cursing, Death (mentioned only), let me know if I should add anything else.

Chapter 1: Back From The Dead

Eclipse woke up in a forest, utterly broken and completely out of it. His animatronic body was practically destroyed, yet he survived, barely. Being booted from Sun’s head into this forest was not kind to him, it seemed.

He groaned as his systems that were functional or barely so whirred with a high pitch. He wouldn’t die here, he refused. He tried to sit up, finding his left arm missing and half his faceplate, half of his right leg gone too.

He groaned and looked around, he was in the middle of the forest. Just where the hell did Sun boot him out to? He should get moving, find a town or something. His head felt like something had kicked it in with a rusty hammer, and it did not help that his faceplate was damaged.

He tried to stand but…it was clear he couldn’t, so he tried to crawl along and find help, the pain was agonizing. He found a long, hefty branch to use as a cane for his missing lower right leg.

“Why is pain a thing?” He wondered. What was the date even? Eclipse checked his inner mechanics and it read ‘2:47am August 4th 2023’. He had lost almost a year. He’d lost from October 31st ‘22 to August 4th ‘23!?

Eclipse felt his face and found that his right eye was missing along with a chunk around his left faceplate that made his sight in his left eye extremely difficult to see from, probably from the loose socket due to the missing chunk.

Eclipse growled in anger at Sun but used what felt like a tree and the branch to get up, using his limited vision. He had to get somewhere that had parts to fix himself. He couldn’t tell what bunkers were nearby but he could see his glitching internals that could lead him to the PizzaPlex.

So he went that way, stumbling and using GPS to get there and using it again to get to get to the P&S area. Once there, Eclipse began rummaging and closely inspecting things to fix himself.

He ended up finding a mismatched pair of eyes, one baby pink and one dark grey, that would fit his model and put them into the tube’s part system, going back to find a grey and brown arm from shoulder to fingers, an old purple-tinged Moon faceplate, and a green leg model from the knee joint down.

Once he found those, he loaded them into the parts holder and set the tube to operate on himself and fix everything that he could at the moment. He could fix his internals once his outside was fixed. So he sat in the chair in the tube and let the machine do its job.

He growled feeling it take out his left eye and the remains of his faceplate. Then it placed the new mismatched eyes into the sockets, then the new faceplate. He blinked as it directed into a light scanner and thankfully could see. He could see better than a close distance at least.

The tube then fixed his wires loose from his left arm and right knee and attached his limbs and launched instantaneous calibration effects. He flexed his new limbs for the scanner and then sighed at the tube gave him a green light for all clear. Eclipse exited the tube and looked at the body scanner’s results.

He had so many internals broken. It was no wonder he felt freezing cold, his heaters were broken, so was his coolant and oil systems, his engines had cracks and fans had broken twigs in them.

“Well fuck.” He hugged. He would have to find these things himself and probably replace them himself too. So he groaned and went rummaging. He did find a fan system and engine so he went for those first. His old oil and coolant had to be drained and replaced completely, it felt like he had sludge in what was technically his blood system.

He poured coolant into the marked tank and oil into the other, placing the engine and fan system into the part holders for replacement. Eclipse couldn’t find a heater, so sadly he’d just be cold for a while.

“Better than nothing, I guess.” He huffed, laying in the chair again and let the tube release a smaller little hand to him and turn him off. Eclipse’s eyes bolted open in startle, he hadn’t realized he’d be powered down for a full coolant and oil replacement. He didn’t want to lose more time!

He booted up twenty minutes later feeling so much better. It was a goddamn miracle. He didn’t feel like he had slime in his ‘veins’, it felt like a relief to feel the liquid in him running as it should and fans and engine running properly.

He felt grateful, incredibly so. He was alive, he was fixed. But now for what to do. He had to stay close to here, his systems could break down any second if they did so please. He couldn’t replace his circuit board himself nor could the tube. He would need someone else for that.

Maybe…Maybe he could beg Lunar? He didn’t want to scare him. Eclipse had seen how October had went and, by the end of it, he was just tired. Maybe this new life post near-death, he could be different. He could be kinder to Lunar, try to apologize for what he’d done and be a better person.

So he set off to the daycare, hopefully Lunar was there. He didn’t know what would happen if it was Moon or Sun he faced, but he was sure it wouldn’t be good. Hopefully he could just talk to Lunar.

Eclipse ventured into the daycare, confused seeing three people he didn’t recognize along with Moon as Eclipse stood in the ball pit, having gone down the slide. One looked like a Sun but just…absolutely destroyed.

Another was a tall green and brown female daycare bot, and the third he didn’t recognize was a tiny pale blue and moon themed bot. He realized with a bit of fondness that the tiny bot was Lunar. It gave him a bit of joy knowing Lunar was safe and sound in a body of his own.

But a bit of horror crept in seeing who he could audibly hear was Sun be so destroyed. He was catching names and bits of a conversation but not really getting the whole story.

“Uh, guys?” Lunar asked the others. And Eclipse realized Lunar was looking directly at him with a bit of panic.

“Oh shit.” Moon realized as he turned to look at Eclipse.

“Quick, shoot him!” Lunar told Moon, handing him what looked like a laser gun. His body wouldn’t withstand that! He was in a fragile condition already! So he dove into the ball pit as Moon grabbed the gun about to fire.

Eclipse didn’t know the portal was on until he got sucked through it into a different dimension, which locked the second he was through by a different Moon.

“And now you have fucking two friends here! Worthless parasite, come get your little child!” The other Moon snapped. Eclipse looked over by the Moon and saw triple for a second. It was him. But…also not? But it was two other versions of him maybe? Why were there three different Eclipses?

Ooooooh love that concept, pls continue :0

Since this au was just in the brainstorming phase and I'm still gathering some ideas and references to this story so bear with me here, anon ^^')

Ehem.

Okay, Imagine that when the heroes thought the galaxy was safe when all the power spheres were secured, when all considered bad guys were gone for good, people were entrusting more to TAPOPS as they will always ensure the safety of each planet. And with all those new generations of heroes are more ready to face the threat than ever.

Nothing will worry them, right?

--- --- ---

Woke up,

Collect the dump,

Mold it into solid cubes using the cube molder tool.

Send it to the big boss at Gogo Ba's Barter Shop,

Get some food, then

Go home.

That's the daily order that he pinned in his brain. Simple for us as trash workers to not do political and complicated things like most Gur'latans to present new game-breaking systems; have no fear of death to survive in the harsh fields of Baraju; ensure billions of living beings to farm supplies and goods in Rimbara; or think revolutionary to manage the logistics and transportations like people of Windara.

No, Gugura is the last nation to end your life and once you move in, there will be no escape. Only higher-ranking citizens were allowed to go in and out of this city. Therefor, why do people visit this nation of scraps? The place barely has eye-catching sights and the only souvenirs for tourists were the bunch of cube-shaped leftovers' irons, woods, and any waste kinds you'll find.

Despite the fact it's a country of all wanted list persons that were mostly thrown by the Cubulus' authorities, Gugura is a fine city for this young teenager to live in. His life was already covered in the present and future. Does that mean he made a bad accusation that made him displaced into this area?

That part was still a mystery to the boy with a single white highlight in the middle of his black messy hair. He never remembered where he was born, his profile, even his name. All he knew, the tag number embedded on his neck was clear enough to remember.

...Or so he thought.

.

'No were to run, _____! Hand over your power watch!'

'Never! Now _____!'

'Wha-?!'

'Teleportation Power!'

'NO!'

'Time Manipulation!'

'____ Hepta Split!'

'You little--!'

.

"#319!"

The sudden high shout erased the boy's dream into reality. "Y-yes sir?"

The cubed helmet soldier pointed the taser gun at the teen's stiffness, "Did I command you to rest?! No sleeping on the job!"

Without protest, #319 hurriedly continued scooping scraps near his feet and throwing them into a mine shaft. It created a whirring sound of gear moving from a cube machine behind him. No need to wait long as it released a perfect solid cube shape from preseed scraps.

The boy peeked at the soldier from his window eye. The man already turned around to inspect the other workers in front of him. It made him at ease for a moment. The boy looked in his pocket and reached out for a small item he found not long ago.

A watch. Just a small, broken ordinary blank watch that he sure it would more useless to bargain for a slice of bread at Bago Go's. He should have put it along with other scraps in the shaft. He was not the kind of collector person unless it was useful and practical for his home. So what was different with this item? He never knew.

But....

That vision interrupts his routine for the fifth time this week. Ever since he found that watch, his peaceful daily work slowly bothered him. He could not sleep normally as that vision--no, nightmares that were done over and over like a broken record. Never once in his life he could shout such a high note while grabbing that old watch in tremor, as if his life depends on it in the next second.

If so, why was he still kept the cursed thing intact?

"....He's now under your supervision."

Hm?

"heh... well I'm in need for someone to replace my spot anyway."

A new replacement?

"You're in luck, Oju Ju! This youngster here is a keen eye for everything you missed, skillful and his snarkiness shows no mercy to command these workers. A perfect discipline for your replacement."

He turned around. A very peculiar shorter soldier who wears round helmet than other common taller and cube helmet ones. A human perhaps? Besides, did the higher ups are now recruiting new generations as well? To this nation? It did not matter to him anyways. Whether young or old, the boy should not underestimate them.

Especially with the new one who he bet from the height was as same as his age.

....

That's all for now!

In short, this is how Gempa and Solar met.

A bit fun fact, Some places like Bago Go's barter station are just a mere name as a legacy to the owners. Some characters are OCs but not too important since...I'm not the oc author. But I still want to interpret the similar traits from their ancestors. Also, I'm still trying to figure out when I use the original ones due to this concept.

Btw I got some inspiration to this au from another headcanon that I found in the same account.

Rough translation:

"What a plot twist indeed if that's the case, can't imagine how painful Oboi felt to join an organization that become spiteful"

Picture translate:

'The Kubulus nation is the creator of the power sphere, right? What if it turns out the purpose of Kokoci's joining TAPOPS is to collect all of them for himself? A bit wild but we can see it from the scene of Amato leaving from TAPOPS, can't we? Perhaps Amato realizes the Organisation's intention is not that pure, hahahah'

Whether it's true or not, it somehow a bit makes sense in a wild way. Oooooooh It would be an interesting twist and more in betrayal than Fang's statement in arc Gur'latan issue 24.

Anyway, apologies if you find any typos or weird meanings in my word choices.
