Random access CMOS imaging technology applied to an industrial machine vision problem

Amitec, a division of the Corrocean Ltd. group of companies, has developed an industrial machine vision system using random-access CMOS imaging technology. The two-camera system has been successfully applied to an industrial manufacturing process requiring extremely accurate gauging measurements in an environment plagued with electrical and light noise. The manufacturing process involves a continuous spot welding operation which produces wire screens used for sand filtering in oil wells. Two online measurements are required to keep the process in-spec
