Active lighting applied to three-dimensional reconstruction of specular metallic surfaces by polarization imaging
2006
International audience; In the field of industrial vision, the three-dimensional inspection of highly reflective metallic objects is still a delicate task. We deal with a new automated three-dimensional inspection system based on polarization analysis. We first present an extension of the shape-from-polarization method for dielectric surfaces to metallic surfaces. Then, we describe what we believe to be a new way of solving the ambiguity concerning the normal orientation with an active lighting system. Finally, applications to shape-defect detection are discussed, and the efficiency of the system to discriminate defects on specular metallic objects made by stamping and polishing is presente…
A multi-objective Pareto design approach for simultaneous control of thinning and springback in complex stamping operations.
2009
Abstract In sheet metal forming operations design, optimization problems have to be solved in order to reach optimal process conditions. In these problems, there are some crucial issues to be taken into account: - most of the problems are multi objective problems, generally characterized by conflicting objectives: the definition of proper parameters aimed to prevent both springback and fracture is a typical example of an optimization problem in sheet metal forming characterized by conflicting goals; - in an industrial environment a great interest would be focused on the availability of a cluster of possible optimal solutions instead of a single “almost optimal” solution. Taking into account…
