For inspection on high-speed production lines, offline verification audits or

machine vision. Positioning tools, locators or pattern finders recognize

and determine exact position and orientation of parts. Results can be

transferred directly to material handling devices or used to position

other tools required for the inspection. We refer to this

correcting for part movement as landmarking.

Machine vision systems are widely used for the verification

of parts, assemblies and packaged goods. The range of

verification applications are generally so broad, they utilize the

same tools for positioning, measurement, identification and flaw

detection. Verification is often combined with other tasks, such as

measurement of part dimensions or reading of product barcodes,

to render 100% product inspection.

Flaws–such as contamination, scratches, cracks, discoloration

a product that might indicate defects. Flaws are

usually random, so machine vision looks

for pattern changes, changes in color

or texture, or for a particular type of

connected structure.
