Take you to understand the five modules of industrial robot vision

The industrial robot system can be regarded as an important symbol of the automation industry, I wonder if you are familiar with the robot vision , which serves as the intelligent eyes

We can understand this in this way: an industrial robot robotic arm without a visual system is completely blind. Of course, some other automation technologies can also achieve functions such as positioning, but for the visual system, the non-contact detection mode, rapid response other characteristics make it a leader in automated detection.

Next, I will take you to learn more about what is the industrial robot vision system

Optical imaging module

As the name suggests, this module mainly refers to light source + lens, which can be further divided into lighting system lens optical system in the industry. In actual applications, we combine the environment of the production site to give reasonable light source intensity, color, etc., which can help subsequent lenses quickly accurately obtain basic information.

Image sensor module

That is the so-called industrial camera part, some projects use smart cameras. The main function of this module is to convert image information into point signals. Currently, the mainstream image sensors of this type are divided into two categories: CCD CMOS.

Image processing module.

In a narrow sense, we can think of it as visual software, including some algorithms. In some mature image systems, mature data algorithm libraries are integrated to facilitate later system references.

The broad field actually also includes some hardware structures, generally a circuit system centered on the CPU!

IO Module

It is mainly used to output the results of the entire visual system operation. It is generally divided into internal interface external interface. However, smart cameras generally use general IO modules high-speed Ethernet.

Display module.

This part can also be considered as IO, but it is based on the user side. The system data is transmitted to the graphics card through the PCI bus, projected to the computer screen through interfaces such as VGA to achieve image visualization!
