摘要： A method and apparatus are provided for identifying diffe rences between a stored pattern and a matching image subset, where variations in pattern position, orientation, and size do not give rise to false differences. The invention is also a system for analyzing an object image with respect to a model pattern so as to detect flaws in the object image. The system includes extracting pattern features from the model pattern; generating a vector-valued function using the pattern features to provide a pattern field; extracting image features from the object image; evaluating each image feature, using the pattern field and an n-dimensional transformation that associates image features with pattern features, so as to determine at least one associated feature characteristic; and using at least one feature characteristic to identify at least one flaw in the object image. The invention can find at least two distinct kinds of flaws: missing features, and extra features. The invention provides pattern inspection that is faster and more accurate than any known prior art method by using a stored pattern that represents an ideal example of the object to be found and inspected, and that can be translated, rotated, and scaled to arbitrary precision much faster than digital image re-sampling, and without pixel grid quantization errors. Furthermore, since the invention does not use digital image re-sampling, there are no pixel quantization errors to cause false differences between the pattern and image that can limit inspection performance.

摘要： The invention provides a fast, computationally inexpensive, and highly accurate method and apparatus for edge detection in a digital image, even for edges that are not substantially parallel to the axes of the pixel grid, by exploiting computationally inexpensive estimates of gradient magnitude and direction. In particular, the method includes the steps of: estimating gradient magnitude and direction at a plurality of regularly-spaced pixel points in the image so as to provide a plurality of estimates of gradient magnitude and direction, each such estimate being associated with a respective gradient point of a regularly-spaced gradient grid; using gradient direction associated with each gradient point to select a respective set of neighboring gradient points; comparing gradient magnitude associated with each gradient point with each gradient magnitude of the respective set of neighboring gradient magnitudes so as to determine which of the gradient magnitudes is a local maximum in approximately the gradient direction; and using the local maximum of gradient magnitude and a set of neighboring gradient magnitudes to determine an interpolated edge position along a one-dimensional gradient magnitude profile. Another aspect of the invention for providing two-dimensional edge position interpolation further includes the step of determining a plane position line normal to the gradient direction of a gradient point associated with the local maximum of gradient magnitude, the plane position line also passing through the interpolated edge position, along which plane position line at least one two-dimensional interpolated position of the edge can be determined.

摘要： A rack module for storing a stack of cigarette packs for individual manual dispensing includes a box shaped open front body member having complementary dove tail couplings formed on its top and bottom faces and pivot pins on its upper forward side borders. A visor member includes a face wall and upwardly rearwardly extending side hinge plates having on its upper borders transversely spaced pairs of laterally aligned hinge bores selectively engaging the pivot pins. Bosses on the body member side wall engage recesses in the hinge plates to releasably lock the visor member in its vertical closed position in transverse registry with the body member opening. A resiliently compressible pad with a pressure sensitive adhesive outer face is positioned on a body member vertical face.

摘要： Disclosed are methods and apparatus for automatic optoelectronic detection and inspection of objects, based on capturing digital images of a two-dimensional field of view in which an object to be detected or inspected may be located, analyzing the images, and making and reporting decisions on the status of the object. Decisions are based on evidence obtained from a plurality of images for which the object is located in the field of view, generally corresponding to a plurality of viewing perspectives. Evidence that an object is located in the field of view is used for detection, and evidence that the object satisfies appropriate inspection criteria is used for inspection. Methods and apparatus are disclosed for capturing and analyzing images at high speed so that multiple viewing perspectives can be obtained for objects in continuous motion.
