Intelligent Factory Automation with Machine Vision Systems

Abstract

General Principles of 3‐D Vision Cameras: Vision systems aimed at upgrading on‐line operations of robotic‐based processes are major advances for intelligent automation. On‐line 3D visualization of the working scenes, with appropriate features extraction and analysis, are prerequisites for innovative and modern factory fabrication. There exist several techniques for 3D imaging a work scene. Besl has classified some of them according to the following list:
