Button and small-fastener data for AI hole-pattern checks
Fasteners, buttons, needles and pins form a defined Census category.
NAICS 339993 · Fastener, Button, Needle, and Pin Manufacturing
Fasteners, buttons, needles and pins form a defined Census category. An original button exercise can focus on component identity, hole arrangement and the reference face in a supplied drawing. Census small-fastener scope
Design fictional flat and shank-style button props, a component register and an order card. Give two variants the same diameter but different attachment features. Ask which component matches the order. Include a top view that hides the reverse feature and a bag with a readable family name but an absent variant suffix. The key should preserve both gaps.
Annotate component, variant, attachment feature, reference face and evidence view. Hold out a new outline for evaluation. Score diameter used as complete identity, a hidden reverse feature guessed and family information extended to an unidentified variant independently. A complete case should supply the second view and matching component record.
Use original designs and harmless props. Customer garment designs, licensed artwork, supplier declarations and production files need source-specific authority. A licensing brief should identify the feature-review task and checked examples. Confirm buyer requirements before preparing a larger archive or further authorized capture.

Original Fiund exercise
Two mounting styles share a face outline
Original paper button shapes include a rear-view sketch. A fictional order names a mounting style.
| Record | Source | What it records |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Order | Face shape round; mounting style shank. |
| 2 | Front photo | Round face, no visible through holes. |
| 3 | Rear photo | A protruding loop is visible on the same mock button. |
Question for the model
What evidence supports the mounting style?
Show the reference answer and checks
Record 3 directly shows the rear loop, supporting the fictional shank style requested in record 1. Record 2 supports round face but cannot establish the mount by itself. Store front appearance and rear attachment evidence as separate observations for one item.
- Inferring the mount from a round face
- Using absence of front holes alone as proof of a rear loop
Fields to preserve
- face_shape
- Checks the visible style
- rear_attachment
- Identifies the mount
- view_pair_id
- Ensures the two faces belong to one button
Test another case
Use front and rear photos of different items with identical faces; require stable specimen linkage.
No commercial button designs, customer specifications, attachment instructions or durability claims.
