AIDO's Machine Vision Unit concentrates on resolving industrial inspection problems. Their aim is to substitute or complement human examination through automated methods in order to control all production and assure higher levels of quality. Machine vision systems are capable of extracting a series of characteristics through the analysis of one or more images from one product or process. The parameters of a product which can be analyzed are very varied: dimensional metrology, the verification of the presence or absence of elements, the control of colour deviation, control of irregular elements, detection of stains, orthographical analysis, etc. Machine vision systems can do different tasks in the production line: · Defect detection in finished products · Presence control · Surface inspection · Dimensional control · Metrology · Robot guidance
