Abstract :
Industrial inspection systems have been in use for some time now. However to-date these systems have been built specifically for the application in which it will function. This has lead to such systems becoming obsolete if the manufacturing process changes. Such systems also relied on the programmer´s competence in selecting appropriate algorithms to carry out the tasks of image processing and segmentation. This paper presents a system that is adaptable for many inspection tasks and generic in nature. It selects algorithms automatically depending on the task at hand and the domain knowledge given
