Needle-shape quality control by shadowgraphic image processing
International audience; We propose a needle-shape quality-control method. To this end, we have devised a new acquisition system that combines a camera and a backlight. Needle measurements are carried out at a micrometric scale using shadowgraphic image processing. Our method not only distinguishes good needles from bad ones, but also allows classifying flawed needles into various categories of defects. This classification is important because some categories of defects can affect the entire production, whereas others do not. The results of our needle-shape quality-control method are validated using real samples directly off the manufacturing line. Needles are correctly classified at >97%, a…
Le récit d’esclave africain-américain : réflexions sur une appellation générique
What do we talk about when we talk about 'slave narratives?' African American slave narratives have been a staple of American literary studies over the past decades. The narratives of Frederick Douglass, Harriet Jacobs and other ex-slaves have been recovered, anthologized and discussed by eminent critics such as Marion Wilson Starling, Henry Louis Gates Jr., Frances Smith Foster and William L. Andrews. For all its ubiquity, however, the generic label 'slave narrative' has been used in many different ways by specialists of African American literature. In this essay I argue that the systematic and sometimes uncritical use of the label has led to generalizations that limit our understanding of…
Strain fields measurement of non-rigid solid by scanning laser coupled with camera
International audience; Abstract. Today, the techniques of measurement without contact by scanning laser are increasingly used. These techniques allow to measure 3D objects without contact and the measurement rates can reach few thousand points by second that is very adapted to complex shapes. To measure displacements and deformations, it is necessary to follow a solid particle in its motion between two configurations of the body before and after displacement. The method of stereovision based on grayscale patterns, obtained by applying a spray, is generally used. The results are obtained by two correlations: spatial and temporal correlations. An alternative method consists to use a scanner …
3D objects descriptors methods: Overview and trends
International audience; Object recognition or object's category recognition under varying conditions is one of the most astonishing capabilities of human visual system. The scientists in computer vision have been trying for decades to reproduce this ability by implementing algorithms and providing computers with appropriate tools. Hence, several intelligent systems have been proposed. To act in this field, numerous approaches have been proposed. In this paper we present an overview of the current trend in 3D objects recognition and describe some representative state of the art methods, highlighting their limits and complexity.
Multiresolution Analysis for Irregular Meshes
International audience; The concept of multiresolution analysis applied to irregular meshes has become more and more important. Previous contributions proposed a variety of methods using simplification and/or subdivision algorithms to build a mesh pyramid. In this paper, we propose a multiresolution analysis framework for irregular meshes with attributes. Our framework is based on simplification and subdivision algorithms to build a mesh pyramid. We introduce a surface relaxation operator that allows to build a non-uniform subdivision for a low computational cost. Furthermore, we generalize the relaxationoperator to attributes such as color, texture, temperature, etc. The attribute analysis…
Multiresolution Analysis for Meshes with Appearance Attributes
International audience; We present a new multiresolution analysis framework for irregular meshes with attributes based on the lifting scheme. We introduce a surface prediction operator to compute the detail coefficients for the geometry and the attributes of the model. Attribute analysis gives appearance information to complete the geometrical analysis of the model. A set of experimental results are given to show the efficiency of our framework. We present two applications to adaptive visual-ization and denoising.
MESH COMPARISON USING ATTRIBUTE DEVIATION METRIC
We propose a mesh comparison method using a new attribute deviation metric. The considered meshes contain geometrical and appearance attributes (material color, texture, temperature, etc.). The proposed deviation metric computes local differences between the attributes of two meshes. A mesh comparison assessment can be done easily and quickly using this metric. The techniques proposed are applicable in a number of ways, e.g. 3D matching and registration, and the example described in the paper is the simplification of a surface by iteratively reducing its complexity according to an error metric. The results are presented showing the success of the algorithm through comparisons with other me…
Salient Spin Images: A Descriptor for 3D Object Recognition
In the last decades a wide range of algorithms have been devoted to recognize 3D free-from objects under real conditions such as occlusions, clutters, rotation, scale and translation. Spin image is one of these algorithms known to be robust to rotation, translation, occlusions up to 70% and clutters up to 60%, but still suffer from scaling, resolution changes and it is time consuming. In this paper we present a novel approach based on spin images, called salient spin images (SSI). This method enhances spin images algorithm based on its limits. Particularly, it decreases significantly the complexity of the algorithm using DoG detector, it shows a higher performance due to the relevant locali…
3D Displacements and Strains Solid Measurement based on the Surface Texture with a Scanner Laser
International audience; The developments of non-contact measurement are today widely due to the unprecedented progress of optronic. The applications of these techniques are wide and varied for the 3D measurement of industrial products. In addition to the forms and dimensions, we show in this paper that the devices of laser scanning permit to measure displacements and deformations. In this case, it is necessary to follow a solid particle in its motion. It is then necessary to identify the particle between two configurations of the body before and after displacement. The method of greyscale patterns, obtained by applying a spray, is generally used. The originality of the proposed method is ba…

La rugosité des surfaces et ses applications
Dans cet article, nous présentons un état de l'art sur les applications liées à la notion de rugosité des surfaces. Ce travail ne prétend pas être exhaustif. Nous nous sommes attachés à référencer les travaux dans les domaines qui nous ont paru les plus pertinents. Le monde industriel s'intéresse depuis longtemps à caractériser et à contrôler la rugosité pour la conception, la fabrication et le contrôle qualité. En informatique graphique, la rugosité est modélisée pour produire des géométries de surfaces ou pour simuler son impact sur la lumière lors du processus de rendu.
Generic attribute deviation metric for assessing mesh simplification algorithm quality
International audience; This paper describes an efficient method to compare two triangular meshes. Meshes considered here contain geometric features as well as other surface attributes such as material colors, texture, temperature, radiation, etc. Two deviation measurements are presented to assess the differences between two meshes. The first measurement, called geometric deviation, returns geometric differences. The second measurement , called attribute deviation, returns attribute differences regardless of the attribute type. In this paper we present an application of this method to the Mesh Simplification Algorithm (MSA) quality assessment according to the appearance attributes. This ass…
3D part inspection path planning of a laser scanner with control on the uncertainty
International audience; This article concerns the measurement process of mechanical parts using laser scanners. From the point of view of industrial applications, the objective is to guarantee the measurement accuracy during the scanning with regard to the geometrical product specifications. The proposed method can be summarized as follow: the first step consists of analyzing the interval of tolerance for the different specifications and to attribute to every geometrical entity a maximal uncertainty of measurement. This uncertainty depends on the angle of incidence between the laser plane and the scanned surface. In the second step, an approach based on the concept of visibility is used fro…
