Abstract

This paper presents a machine vision system for the high-accuracy 3D measurement of holes on the surface of industrial components. This is a very important application for inline quality inspection in assembly plants. A CAD-based stereo vision approach is adopted. The introduction of several novel techniques enables the system to achieve high robustness in versatile industrial environments, rapid response, and accuracy below 0.1 mm. These are demonstrated by extensive experiments with synthetic and real data.
