SAM Opto-Electronic Picture Sensor In A Flexible Manufacturing Assembly System
W. Brune, K. Bitter · Proceedings of SPIE, the International Society for Optical Engineering/Proceedings of SPIE · 1983
A typical application, namely the flexible, automatic assembly of equipment bearing plates, has been taken to show the practical possibilities of a picture sensor system. It consists of three video cameras, two monitors for picture and data processing with dialogue, a keyboard and a processing unit. The sensor system controls transport, handling and grasping functions and recognises incomplete assemblies in the final check.
