A METHOD FOR IMAGING WORKPIECE SURFACES AT HIGH ROBOT TRANSFER SPEEDS WITH REDUCTION OR PREVENTION OF MOTION-INDUCED DISTORTION
摘要
? method is provided for imaging a workpiece by capturing successive frames of an elongate stationary field of view transverse to a workpiece transit path of a robot, while the workpiece is transported by the robot. The robot transit path is illuminated with an elongate illumination pattern transverse to the transit path to obtain a workpiece image of successive frames. Motion-induced image distortion is prevented or reduced adjusting the camera frame rate in real time in proportion to changes in robot velocity profile of the workpiece along the transit path.
