Computer vision for high-speed, high-volume manufacturing

This paper is a discussion of the use of computer vision techniques for quality control in high-volume, high speed manufacturing-with particular reference to electrical fuses. An overview of typical real-time manufacturing vision systems is given, together with a description of an example problem-that of inspecting electrical fuses within a high-speed manufacturing environment. A vision inspection method is introduced that uses 3-D imaging.<<ETX>>
