Optimizing Vision Systems with Specialized Lighting

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
The success of an automated machine vision system is determined by the effectiveness of the lighting and imaging system. A new illumination technique is helping to streamline image processing and analysis.

Leo Baldwin, and Karen Ronning-Hall

Automated machine vision systems are increasingly being used to perform inspection and identification tasks during production. They are more consistent and faster than humans, and only automated systems can meet many of the current expectations for process control and inspection. A specialized lighting and imaging system can greatly simplify downstream image processing and analysis. A new technique for this purpose is under development at Electro Scientific Industries. Called narrow-angle dark-field illumination, it is particularly advantageous for highlighting minor features or defects on...Read full article

    machine vision
    Machine vision, also known as computer vision or computer sight, refers to the technology that enables machines, typically computers, to interpret and understand visual information from the world, much like the human visual system. It involves the development and application of algorithms and systems that allow machines to acquire, process, analyze, and make decisions based on visual data. Key aspects of machine vision include: Image acquisition: Machine vision systems use various...
