[0057] Step S40, establish a distance reference coordinate system: determine the center pixel point of the Mark point, take it as the origin, establish the X-axis and Y-axis, and determine the direction of the coordinate axis; after establishing the two-dimensional rectangular coordinate system, use the coordinate system to measure and analyze the silver award specifications; determine the specific position and size of these points by measuring the distance and direction of each point on the target object and the origin of the coordinate system;

[0058] Step S50, image processing: distinguishing the silver paste coating area;

[0059] Step S60: Determine coating specifications.

[0060] Furthermore, the hardware device layout design of the embodiment of the present application is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, the following equipment is included:

[0061] Drive shafts and conveyor belts: As the power source for the flow of oxide LCD modules, their barrier-free operation not only provides continuous and stable power support for the production line, but also effectively promotes the smooth flow, thereby ensuring efficient production and high-quality output of LCD modules. In addition, this also provides the basis for the imaging of industrial line scan cameras, providing important support for the monitoring and quality control of the production process.

[0062] Bar-shaped industrial linear array light source: Bar-shaped industrial linear array light source plays a vital role in the imaging of industrial line scan cameras. By providing a stable and uniform light source, the bar-shaped industrial linear array light source can effectively eliminate shadows and reflections, and improve the clarity and accuracy of imaging. In addition, the bar-shaped industrial linear array light source can also help reduce noise and improve the contrast of the image, thereby better showing the details and features of the inspected object. Through reasonable light source design and layout, the imaging quality of industrial linear array cameras can be effectively improved, providing reliable support for monitoring and quality control of the production process.

[0063] Industrial line array camera: Industrial line array camera can quickly and accurately obtain image information of the object to be inspected by receiving light reflected by different materials on the surface of oxide LCD, thus realizing inspection tasks on automated production lines.

[0064] Specifically, under the above settings, the embodiment of the present application can quickly perform real-time detection on the silver paste specifications of the oxide LCD module after silver paste coating, which is helpful to improve the production efficiency of the module production line, reduce production costs, and provide high-quality solutions for the fully automated module industry; wherein, the embodiment of the present application uses the Mark points of the oxide LCD as a reference benchmark, establishes a reference coordinate system, and uses image processing algorithms and mathematical principles to determine the silver paste coating specifications; the embodiment of the present application can flexibly adjust hardware equipment such as the camera light source according to the different precision requirements of actual production, thereby achieving fast and real-time silver paste specification determination, while ensuring the accuracy of the determination, greatly improving the production efficiency of the oxide LCD module.

[0065] In the embodiment of the present application, image acquisition is performed using a linear array camera, and the conveyor belt on the upper assembly line is used to scan the oxide LCD module line by line, and the pixels of each row of the oxide LCD module are captured one by one through the moving oxide LCD module, and converted into digital signals; the method of image acquisition in step S10 is:

[0066] Step S11, equipment selection and parameter adjustment: Before image acquisition, it is necessary to set the parameters of the line array camera, including exposure time, gain, and synchronization signal; adjust the position, angle, and conveyor speed of the camera so that it scans the object at a uniform speed;

[0067] Step S12, image output: After setting the parameters and completing the focus and positioning, start the line array camera and the conveyor belt. The line array camera performs real-time scanning and image acquisition, and transmits the acquired data to the computer.

[0068] Among them, the Mark point is a special mark in the LCD module; it is usually in the shape of a "cross" and is located at the lower left and lower right corners of the module terminal side. It is the basis of the automation equipment of the entire module and is used for positioning, calibration and detection of the module during production and assembly. Therefore, silver paste specification detection also needs to use the Mark point as the basis of the entire method. The principle of the SIFT-based Mark point recognition method is to use the SIFT algorithm to extract key points and descriptors in the image, and then identify the Mark points of the target object by matching these descriptors. The SIFT-based Mark point recognition method in step S20 is:

[0069] Step S21, feature extraction of Mark points: In Mark point recognition, key points and descriptors are first extracted from the image of the target object and the reference image, and then the position of the target object in the image is determined by matching the descriptors;

[0070] Step S22, key point matching: The key point matching process uses the nearest neighbor matching algorithm, that is, for each key point, the closest key point is found in the reference image, and the matching degree is evaluated by comparing the distances between their descriptors; the matching method is a ratio test based on the nearest neighbor matching, that is, for each key point, its nearest neighbor and the next nearest neighbor are found, and if the distance ratio between the nearest neighbor and the next nearest neighbor is less than a threshold, the match is considered successful, otherwise the match is considered failed; the distance ratio calculation method is as follows:

[0071]

[0072] Among them, d1 is the distance between the nearest neighbor descriptor and the current key point descriptor, and d2 is the distance between the next nearest neighbor descriptor and the current key point descriptor. If the distance ratio is less than a set threshold, the match is considered successful.

[0073] The pixel size characterization method in step S30 is: by calculating the number of pixels in the image, the size of the object in the image can be obtained. The calculation method is as follows:

[0074] S = L × N;

[0075] Among them, S is the size of the object, L is the actual size represented by each pixel, and N is the number of pixels occupied by the object.

[0076] In the embodiment of the present application, since the surface of the glass of the oxide LCD module will produce specular reflection under the illumination of the strip array light source, while the surface of the silver paste will produce diffuse reflection; therefore, there will be obvious differences between the surface of the silver paste and other materials; the brightness of the surface of the glass of the oxide LCD module will be significantly higher than that of the silver paste surface; therefore, an image processing algorithm can be used to distinguish the silver paste coating area; the image processing method in step S50 is:

[0077] Step S51, the image captured by the linear array camera has high resolution, which contains a large number of redundant pixels; in order to improve the processing speed of the algorithm, the redundant pixels in the image can be significantly reduced by presetting the region of interest (ROI); by setting the ROI, the number of unnecessary pixels in the image can be effectively reduced, thereby reducing the amount of data and improving the algorithm processing efficiency; the method for presetting the image ROI area is: according to the position of the Mark point of the oxide LCD module and the position of the silver paste coating, the retention thresholds y of the upper, lower, left and right of the image are manually preset 上 ,y 下 、x 左 、x 右 , Wherein, x, y are the pixel coordinates of the coordinate system established in step S40;

[0078] According to the thresholds set above, only those that meet the formula are retained: Pixels of

[0079] Step S52, image ROI region binary segmentation: convert the ROI image into a grayscale image, and then use the Otsu method to segment it into the silver paste area and other areas; by finding a threshold value, the inter-class variance between the foreground and the background is maximized, thereby achieving image binary segmentation; the specific steps are as follows:

[0080] First, calculate the grayscale histogram of the image and normalize it;

[0081] Then, a threshold T is selected from the grayscale level 0 to 255 to divide the image into two parts: pixels less than or equal to T are one category, and pixels greater than T are another category;

[0082] Calculate the number of pixels, average gray value and inter-class variance of the two classes;

[0083] According to the calculation formula of between-class variance σ 2 =ω1(μ1-μ T ) 2 +ω2(μ2-μ T ) 2 , find the threshold T that maximizes the inter-class variance;

[0084] Among them, ω1 and ω2 are the pixel proportions of the two classes, μ1 and μ2 are the average grayscale values ​​of the two classes, and μ T is the average gray value of the entire image;

[0085] By calculating the inter-class variance under different thresholds and selecting the threshold that maximizes the inter-class variance as the final binarization threshold, Otsu's binarization can be achieved; this method can effectively and adaptively select the optimal threshold according to the characteristics of the image, and is suitable for image segmentation of silver paste and glass of oxide LCD.

[0086] In the embodiment of the present application, according to the above process, the area where the silver paste is applied has been successfully determined, and the conditions for determining the coating specifications have been met; now it is only necessary to calculate the relevant parameters using the existing conditions and compare them with the set silver paste specification parameters to determine the specifications of the silver paste coating in real time.

Then, the number of silver paste areas n is calculated through the contour search algorithm in Opencv. Finally, the number of silver paste areas n is compared with the set coating area number n. set Compare, if n≠n set, then this oxide LCD module has a breakpoint or missed coating when the silver paste is coated, so it is directly judged as not meeting the specifications; otherwise, after passing the judgment of this step, it enters step S62;

[0089] S62: Calculate the width and height of the silver paste coating:

[0090] First, the extreme values ​​x of the x-axis and y-axis of each silver paste coating area are obtained one by one through the traversal algorithm and the sorting algorithm. min , x max ,y min ,y max ; The calculation method is as follows:

[0091]

[0092] Among them, MAX and MIN are functions for finding maximum and minimum values ​​respectively;

[0093] Then, the number of pixels of the height and width of the silver paste coating area is obtained by the extreme values ​​of the two coordinate axes, and finally the distance dimension S represented by each pixel is obtained. pixel Calculate the height h and width w of the silver paste as follows:

[0094]

[0095] Finally, the height h and width w of the silver paste are compared with the set thresholds of the height and width of the silver paste coating. If h and w meet the formula: If the condition is met, that is, the height and width of the silver paste coating specifications are within the threshold range, it can be determined that the silver paste coating specifications meet the requirements, otherwise, they do not meet the requirements.
