Hybrid vision system for diagnostics of technical objects and processes

Abstract

The paper presents a hybrid system for vision diagnostics of technical objects and processes simultaneously in the visible and infrared band. The system consists of a hybrid vision head adapted for use in industrial conditions, control and measurement system and the optional cooling system using compressed air. In order to verify the concept of hybrid method the study was performed on selected objects in the laboratory conditions using the developed system. The next stage was to perform the vision diagnostics of technical process in industrial conditions. By combining the analysis of the images in the two spectral bands additional information about the examined object or technical process can be obtained.
