Machine vision is the use of computer technology and specialize industrial camera equipment to monitor and analyze objects via captured images. The vision system uses the analyzed images to measure, categorize, orient, pattern match or return a Go – NoGo decision. Machine vision is used in a wide range of industries, including industrial manufacturing, automotive manufacturing, food processing and pharmaceuticals, manufacturing automation, packaging automation.
The most common uses of machine vision are:
Feature Identification
Object Detection and Gauging
Many machine vision systems today can be configured to measure down to .01 mm accuracy possibly eliminating the need for traditional contact gauging entirely. I properly designed fixed camera system can provide quick 100% inspection on the assembly line before additional value added operations are performed on the component.
Process inspection optimization
Similar to gauging a part with a machine vision system it is also possible to optimize for other inspections too.
3D vision inspection
3D vision inspection uses advanced lighting techniques such as structed light to generate accurate 3D height data for use in the inspection software. Advanced applications of this system can provide:
Optical Character Recognition (OCR) and Optical Character Verification (OCV) are software tools that allow extraction and recognition of textual data and characters in captured images.
OCR can identify letters, numbers and other symbols while OCV can verify that they have been accurately captured. There are many manufacturing use cases for both OCR and OCV such as inspecting a product before it is shipped to customers or checking the quality of the text on the manufacturing plant floor.
