Hybrid vision system for online measurement of surface roughness

Journal of the Optical Society of America A 23 (2006) 3072–3079

A hybrid vision system for online measurement of surface roughness is introduced. The hybrid vision system applies two cameras for capturing the laser speckle pattern and scattering images simultaneously. With the help of advanced image processing, several features of texture and shape are computed for the surface roughness characterization. On the basis of experimental tests, feature fusion to improve measurement range and linearization of the measurement is also discussed.
