Book Automatic Vision System for Surface Inspection and Monitoring

Download or read book Automatic Vision System for Surface Inspection and Monitoring written by Karim Tout and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Visual inspection of finished products has always been one of the basic and most recognized applications of quality control in any industry. This inspection remains largely a manual process conducted by operators, and thus faces considerable limitations that make it unreliable. Therefore, it is necessary to automatize this inspection for better efficiency. The main goal of this thesis is to design an automatic visual inspection system for surface inspection and monitoring. The specific application of wheel inspection is considered to study the design and installation setup of the imaging system. Then, two inspection methods are developed: a defect detection method on the product's surface and a change-point detection method in the parameters of the non-stationary inspection process. Because in an industrial context it is necessary to control the false alarm rate, the two proposed methods are cast into the framework of hypothesis testing theory. A parametric approach is proposed to model the non-anomalous part of the observations. The model parameters are estimated to design a statistical test whose performances are analytically known. Finally, the impact of illumination degradation on the defect detection performance is studied in order to predict the maintenance needs of the imaging system. Numerical results on a large set of real images highlight the relevance of the proposed approach.

Book Automated Surface Defect Detection Using Line Scan   Area Scan Cameras

Download or read book Automated Surface Defect Detection Using Line Scan Area Scan Cameras written by M Nacy Somer and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2015-05-11 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Development in industry is an important factor to increasing the production rate and quality inspection time. The automatic inspection vision system gives the real-time inspection for product. This work shows the design of an automatic inspection vision system. The principle work of area scan camera is to compare image capturing with the base image for product surface which already stored in the host-computer. This comparison will decide if the product will pass or will be rejected. The required results then can be implemented by using the Matlab software to compare the images. The accepted and rejected operations are controlled by the microcontroller (PIC16F84A) that regulates the product rejection after the image processing. The principle work of line scan camera is scanning the product surface via multi-line capturing through multi-triggers generated by the encoder. The defect detection is obtained by the difference in the light intensity for the surface of product with defect or not; Where the results are shown graphically by the LabVIEW software. The results of the line scan and the area scan are dependent on the intensity of light reflected from the product surface.

Book Vision and Information Processing for Automation

Download or read book Vision and Information Processing for Automation written by A. Browne and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1986-11-30 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Developments in electronic hardware, particularly microprocessors and solid-state cameras, have resulted in a vast explosion in the range and variety of applications to which intelligent processing may be applied to yield cost-effective automation. Typical examples include automated visual inspection and repetitive assembly. The technology required is recent and specialized, and is thus not widely known. VISION AND INFORMATION PROCESSING FOR AUTOMATION has arisen from a short course given by the authors to introduce potential users to the technology. Its content is a development and extension of material presented in the course. The objective of the book is to introduce readers to modern concepts and techniques basic to intelligent automation, and explain how these are applied to prac tical problems. Its emphasis is on machine vision. Intelligent instrumentation is concerned with processing infor mation, and an appreciation of the nature of information is essential in configuring instrumentation to handle it effiCiently. An understand ing of the fundamental principles of efficient computation and of the way in which machines make decisions is vital for the same reasons. Selection of appropriate sensing (e.g., camera type and configuration), of illumination, of hardware for processing (microchip or parallel processor?) to give most effective information flow, and of the most appropriate processing algorithms is critical in obtaining an optimal solution. Analysis of performance, to demonstrate that requirements have been met, and to identify the causes if they have not, is also important. All of these topics are covered in this volume.
