Abstract

As computer-integrated manufacturing facilities continue to grow in complexity, increasingly sophisticated computer based sensory systems will be required to carry out functions such as robot guidance, tool wear monitoring, and product inspection. This paper reviews progress in the development of advanced computer vision systems at the National Engineering Laboratory, UK and describes the design of hardware and software for two dimensional image analysis. A component recognition system for robotic applications is detailed and a novel structured light technique for three dimensional component analysis is described. Part II, which contains several case histories, will be published in the November issue.
