Embodiment 1

[0058] like Figure 4 As shown, a method for detecting Mura defects with blurred edges in an LCD screen includes the following steps:

[0059] S1: Extract the region of interest in the image by image cropping;

[0060] S2: Perform Gaussian filtering on the image in step S1 to filter out Gaussian noise;

[0061] S3: down-sampling the image after step S2 to reduce the resolution of the image;

[0062] S4: perform edge filling on the image after step S3, and fill the non-screen area of ​​the edge area;

[0063] S5: Select a certain position in the image after step S4 to add noise;

[0064] S6: Differentiate the noise-added image after step S5 and the image obtained in step S4, and enhance the result image after the difference;

[0065] S7: Perform binarization and expansion processing on the image obtained in step S6 to screen out defects;

[0066] S8: Upsampling and masking the image obtained in step S7 to restore the resolution of the image and shield the false detection o...

Embodiment 2

[0086] like Figure 4 As shown, a Mura defect detection method with blurred edges in an LCD screen is divided into eight steps to realize the detection process. The first step is image cropping, which is used to extract the region of interest in the image. The second step of Gaussian filtering is to filter out Gaussian noise. The third step is downsampling, reducing the resolution of the image. The fourth step is edge padding, which fills the non-screen area of ​​the edge area. The fifth step is to add the right amount of noise in the right place. The sixth step is to perform a difference between the image without noise and the image with added noise, and enhance the resulting image after the difference. The seventh step is to perform binarization and dilation processing to screen out defects. The eighth step is to perform upsampling and masking to restore the resolution of the image and shield the false detection of non-screen areas. Through the processing of the above ...

Embodiment 3

[0115] After starting the detection, it is necessary to place the product to be detected in the center of the camera's field of view, then turn on the power to light up the screen, adjust the gray value of the pixels on the screen to a certain threshold (for example, 128), and then use the camera to capture images. The collected images are transferred to the computer, and the collected images are as follows: Figure 5 shown. Figure 5 The black area on the periphery of the middle screen is the bleeding point, which does not belong to the range that needs to be detected. The screen area can be cropped out by manually inputting the screen edge coordinates or automatically calculating the screen edge coordinates. The cropped rendering is as follows Figure 8 shown. According to the cropped screen renderings, the edge information of the screen can be obtained, so as to create a Figure 9 The picture of the mask stencil shown is for use in subsequent mask steps.

Abstract

The invention provides a method for detecting an edge fuzzy Mura defect in an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) screen, which is used for accurately detecting the defect by adding noise and is suitable for screens with different shapes and sizes. For the bleeding points in the edge area of the screen, filling is carried out before detection, and masking is carried out after detection, so that the influence of the bleeding points on the detection result is avoided; in order to solve the problem that the image resolution is large, the size of the image is reduced to the original size in a down-sampling mode, so that the image processing time is saved, and effective data in the image is reserved; after the whole image processing process is completed, the result image is restored to the original size in an up-sampling mode, and field operation workers can check, analyze and judge the result image conveniently.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of machine vision detection, and more particularly, to a Mura defect detection method with blurred edges in an LCD screen. Background technique [0002] LCD screens are usually composed of multiple materials and substrate layers that are bonded together. Often during the bonding process, various contaminants, air bubbles, migrations or other defects may enter the LCD screen to cause Mura defects. The existence of Mura defects seriously affects the yield of LCD screens. There are currently three mainstream detection methods for Mura defects with blurred edges. First, traditional detection methods rely on the human eye. This method has shortcomings such as slow detection speed, low efficiency, inability to meet high-speed automated production lines, and low detection accuracy. Secondly, in the edge detection scheme, because the edge of this defect is very blurred, the gray value of the pixel points in the edge area i...
