INFORMATION AND COMMMUNICATION EMERGING TECHNOLOGY MACHINE VISION
Definition: • The automatic extraction of information from digital images • The technology and methods used to provide imaging-based automatic inspection and analysis
Short History • Started 80’s and 90’s • In 1983 AUTOMATIX was introduced • Victor Scheinman • Automatix was the first user of Motorola 68000 microprocessor • MICROSCAN company
4 common Applications • Measurement • Counting • Location • Decoding
Measurement • Check to specified tolerance
Counting • Look for number of parts • Checking for features • Missing pieces
Location • Locate position and orientation • Check specified tolerances • Find unique pattern to identify part
Decoding • Record information as historical data • Track products, sort, validate data • Verify correctness of data, format of data
Other applications • Automotive and Aerospace • Electronics Validation • Food, Pharmaceuticals, Consumer Goods • Medical and Scientific • Semiconductor and Solar • Vision-Guided Robotics
