Objective
A large number of highly automated industrial production and manufacturing processes require various on-line visual assessment and/or position determination procedures. These production processes are many and varied ranging from the visual quality assurance of foodstuffs to location and robotic selection of machined parts whilst moving along a production line. Computerised vision recognition systems offer a non-contact, non-destructive measurement technique that can be readily incorporated into closed loop control methods within automated manufacturing processes. The specific industrial process for which this development project is initially targeted is the automated re-stocking of steel cages for the transportation and retail display of plastic bottled milk commonly encountered in supermarket grocery stores - specifically with respect to the monitoring of damage of the steel cage. This presents a number of generic problems to more advanced recognition systems as well as acting as a detailed demonstrator of the developed system application. The overall intent is thus the development of a highly modular computerised vision recognition system that will be of low cost. The developed modular system will be capable of, via the appropriate tailoring specific to the intended task, - the inspection of many different products; 3 dimensional complex non-solid or solid, - will require little or no expert reprogramming of the system once installed, - be compatible with the typical industrial automatised software and hardware. The actual research and technical development accomplished by this project will be fundamental in nature with the design and construction of a prototype system suitable for the specific dairy and one other application.
