<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To automate the conversion of an indication specified in its location on a digital image to a physical component. <P>SOLUTION: The system and method for identifying flaws in a component being inspected includes generating a 3-d representation of the component, the 3-d representation comprising 3-d spatial coordinates corresponding to different locations on the component (206), and registering the 3-d spatial coordinates with corresponding locations of the component being inspected (214). An image of the component being inspected is generated, and a flaw in the component being inspected is identified from the generated image (210). A location of the flaw is correlated to a corresponding 3-d spatial coordinate, and a device is controlled to perform an operation on the component being inspected at the flaw location using information of the corresponding 3-d spatial coordinate (216). <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI |
