Embodiment Construction

[0031] figure 1 is an illustration of an exemplary vision system arrangement 100 in which a scene includes a reflective object 110 positioned stationary relative to a stationary vision system camera 120 in accordance with an illustrative embodiment. In this embodiment, vision system camera 120 includes a two-dimensional (2D) image sensor S that includes an array of N×M pixels in, for example, a rectangular arrangement. The camera includes an optical package OC, which may include any acceptable lens assembly (eg, a lens with a C-type objective mount, F-type objective mount, or M12-type mount). In this embodiment, the lens includes a manual or automatic aperture control—for example, an iris, wherein a user or other external controller can enter an appropriate aperture setting 124 into the manual or automatic aperture control (as further described below). like that). Sensor S and optical package OC collectively define an optical axis OA, which is generally perpendicular to the ...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a system and method for detecting and imaging reflective surface defects on a reflective surface using knife edge technology, wherein a camera aperture or an external device is arranged to form a physical knife edge structure within the optical path, the physical knife The edge structure advantageously shades reflected light rays from illuminated reflective surfaces having predetermined slope values ​​and enables light rays deflected at different slopes to reach the vision system camera sensor. Most of the light reflected from the flat part of the surface is blocked by the knife edge. Most of the light reflected from the sloped portion of the defect is reflected into the entrance aperture. The illuminating beam is angled relative to the optical axis of the camera to provide an angle of incidence at a suitable angle to the surface being inspected. The surface can be stationary or moving relative to the camera.
