摘要： Disclosed are systems and methods for configuring a vision detector, wherein a training image is obtained from a production line operating in continuous motion so as to provide conditions substantially identical to those that will apply during actual manufacturing and inspection of objects. A training image can be obtained without any need for a trigger signal, whether or not the vision detector might use such a signal for inspecting the objects. Further disclosed are systems and methods for testing a vision detector by selecting, storing, and displaying a limited number of images from a production run, where those images correspond to objects likely to represent incorrect decisions.

摘要： This invention provides a system and method for employing GUI-based non-numeric slide buttons and bar meters to setup and monitor operating parameters of a vision system (the term “vision system” as used herein including the above-described vision detector). Such parameters can include, but are not limited to the threshold at which a feature is activated in viewing an image. Operating parameters also include the under-lying range of contrast values and levels of brightness intensities (or by input inversion, the level of darkness) recognized and acted upon by the vision system. Graphical representations of operating parameters are displayed in a parameter box on the GUI with moving bars that are shaded, patterned or colored so as to provide a relative level between two extremes on a scale of the given operating parameter. The endpoints of the scale can be established by analyzing the relevant extremes on a subject image view. The current level of the given parameter is displayed as a bar that extends a distance along the scale that is proportional to the current level of the parameter along the scale. Input of operating parameter settings with respect to the scale is made by moving a setting slider along the scale between the extremes. The position of the slider establishes the user-input setting relative to the scale. In an illustrative embodiment, scales, level bars and setting sliders can also be displayed on the image view itself, adjacent to a given image view feature, which is the subject of the scale.

摘要： The present invention relates to a system and method for determining collisions between polyhedron objects represented by their features. Collisions are detected by determining the relative positions of closest features between pairs of polyhedra. The present invention is based upon comparisions of a feature from one polygon with a Voronoi region corresponding to a feature of another polyhedron. If a closest point from each feature is within the Voronoi region of the other feature, then the two features are the closest for that pair of objects. If the features are not within the Voronoi regions, then a new feature for one of the objects or polyhedra is selected based upon the position of the features relative to the Voronoi region. When a feature is of an edge type, the edge is clipped against the planes defining the Voronoi region. A new feature is selected based upon the relative positions of the points where the edge is clipped to the corresponding features defining the Voronoi region. In this manner, new features are selected which reduce the distance between features or which reduce the dimension of the selected feature without increasing the distance between features. New features are selected until the closests points are within the Voronoi region of the other feature, thus defining the closest features. The process is repeated for all pairs of objects and upon movement of any objects to continuously determine the closest features between sets of moving objects.
摘要翻译：本发明涉及一种用于确定由其特征表示的多面体对象之间的碰撞的系统和方法。通过确定多面体对之间最近特征的相对位置来检测碰撞。本发明基于来自一个多边形的特征与对应于另一多面体特征的Voronoi区域的比较。如果每个特征的最近点在另一个特征的Voronoi区域内，那么两个特征对于该对对象最接近。如果特征不在Voronoi区域内，则基于特征相对于Voronoi区域的位置选择对象或多面体之一的新特征。当特征是边缘类型时，边缘被限制在限定Voronoi区域的平面上。基于将边缘裁剪的点相对于定义Voronoi区域的相应特征的相对位置来选择新特征。以这种方式，选择了减少特征之间的距离或者在不增加特征之间的距离的情况下减小所选特征的尺寸的新特征。选择新特征，直到闭合点在另一特征的Voronoi区域内，从而定义最接近的特征。对于所有物体对和在任何物体的运动中重复该过程以连续地确定运动物体组之间最接近的特征。

摘要： A system generates and arranges animation sequences of articulated characs for review and selection by a user. Motion of articulated characters is based upon input parameters, such as torques at joints of the character. The system can be used to select appropriate parameters to obtain desirable motion of the articulated characters. The system generates a set of input vectors containing parameters of the motion. The input parameters are then processed to determine animation sequences and corresponding output vectors. The output vectors include characteristics of the motion. The input vectors are selected to provide a dispersed set of output vectors. A large number of random input vectors can be generated and then culled to leave a dispersed set of output vectors. Alternatively, a set of randomly generated input vectors of a predetermined size are randomly perturbed, to further disperse the output vectors. The system includes an interface for representing the output vectors and animation sequences in a manner which is easily reviewable by a user. The output vectors are displayed so that positions represent distances between the output vectors. The user can then select specific output vectors so that the corresponding animation sequence is displayed.

摘要： This invention provides a Graphical User Interface (GUI) that operates in connection with a machine vision detector or other machine vision system, which provides a highly intuitive and industrial machine-like appearance and layout. The GUI includes a centralized image frame window surrounded by panes having buttons and specific interface components that the user employs in each step of a machine vision system set up and run procedure. One pane allows the user to view and manipulate a recorded filmstrip of image thumbnails taken in a sequence, and provides the filmstrip with specialized highlighting (colors or patterns) that indicate useful information about the underlying images. The system is set up and run are using a sequential series of buttons or switches that are activated by the user in turn to perform each of the steps needed to connect to a vision system, train the system to recognize or detect objects/parts, configure the logic that is used to handle recognition/detection signals, set up system outputs from the system based upon the logical results, and finally, run the programmed system in real time. The programming of logic is performed using a programming window that includes a ladder logic arrangement. A thumbnail window is provided on the programming window in which an image from a filmstrip is displayed, focusing upon the locations of the image (and underlying viewed object/part) in which the selected contact element is provided.
