Developments in electronic hardware, particularly microprocessors
and solid-state cameras, have resulted in a vast explosion in the
range and variety of applications to which intelligent processing
may be applied to yield cost-effective automation. Typical examples
include automated visual inspection and repetitive assembly. The
technology required is recent and specialized, and is thus not
widely known. VISION AND INFORMATION PROCESSING FOR AUTOMATION has
arisen from a short course given by the authors to introduce
potential users to the technology. Its content is a development and
extension of material presented in the course. The objective of the
book is to introduce readers to modern concepts and techniques
basic to intelligent automation, and explain how these are applied
to prac tical problems. Its emphasis is on machine vision.
Intelligent instrumentation is concerned with processing infor
mation, and an appreciation of the nature of information is
essential in configuring instrumentation to handle it effiCiently.
An understand ing of the fundamental principles of efficient
computation and of the way in which machines make decisions is
vital for the same reasons. Selection of appropriate sensing (e.g.,
camera type and configuration), of illumination, of hardware for
processing (microchip or parallel processor?) to give most
effective information flow, and of the most appropriate processing
algorithms is critical in obtaining an optimal solution. Analysis
of performance, to demonstrate that requirements have been met, and
to identify the causes if they have not, is also important. All of
these topics are covered in this volume."
