Components of Image Acquisition
and Digitization
Of course there is a camera for capturing
video
Solid-State Cameras
Illumination (Light source)
The scene captured by the vision camera
must be well illuminated and the illum
ination must be constant over time
There are mainly five categories of lighting
systems.
◦ Front lighting
◦ Back lighting
◦ Side lighting
◦ Structured lighting
◦ Strobe lighting.
Front lighting.
◦ Light source is located at the same side of the
camera.
◦ Produces a reflected light from the object that allow
inspection of surface features.
Back lighting.
◦ Light source is placed between behind the object
being viewed by the camera.
◦ This create dark silhouette of the object that
contrasts sharply with the light background.
◦ This type is used for inspect parts dimension and
distinguish between part outlines.
Silhouette
Back Lighting
Side lighting
◦ Light source is placed at the side of the surface to
be illuminated.
◦ For finding out surface irregularities, flaws, defects
on the surface.
Structured lighting
◦ Projection of special light pattern onto the object.
◦ Usually planer sheet of highly focused light are
used.
technique)
◦ Thresholding
◦ Edge detection
Feature extraction
Segmentation:- Indented to define separate
region of interest within the image.
◦ The two common segmentation techniques.
Thresholding
Conversion of each pixel intensity level into a binary value,
representing black or white.
There is a threshold value of intensity
If the value of the pixel of the image is less than the
threshold value then the pixel value is Zero(Black)
otherwise One( White).
are:-
◦ Template matching
◦ Feature weighting.
Pattern recognition
◦ Recognizing the object
◦ Comparing the image with predefined models or
standard values.
◦ Template matching:-
Compare one or more feature of an image with the
corresponding feature of model or template stored in
computer memory.
Image is compared pixel by pixel.
Disadvantage : very difficult to aligning the part in the
same position and orientation in front of the camera, to
allow the comparison to be made with out complication in
the image processing.
◦ Feature Weighting.
Several features like area, length and perimeter are
combined into a single measure by assigning a weight
to each feature according to the relative importance in
the identifying the object.
The score of the object in the image is compared with
the score of the image in the computer memory to
achieve proper identification.
