Some Terms … • Image Processing: low level operations; output is still an image. • Image Analysis: still low level; output is not longer an image (numbers, …). • Machine Vision: high level applications; simulates human vision. • Pattern Recognition: REcognition and classifying of patterns (not only IP!).
What do we expect from a Machine Vision System ? • … to „see“ things like we (humans) do; • Therefore: we need some knowledge and understanding about how we see things; • … and we have to „think“ like a Machine Vision system.
Why do we use cameras as sensors ? • Cameras are getting cheaper and cheaper; • Computer are getting cheaper and cheaper; • Software is getting more and more powerful; • The combination of • Camera, • Computer, and • Software • is a cost-effective measuring system, which can be used for a large number of applications.
