A Stitching Algorithm for Automated Surface Inspection of Rotationally Symmetric Components
A Stitching Algorithm for Automated Surface Inspection of Rotationally Symmetric Components Tobias Schlagenhauf1, Tim Brander1, Jürgen Fleischer1 1Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) wbk-Institute of Production Science Kaiserstraße 12, 76131 Karlsruhe, Germany Abstract This paper provides a novel approach to stitching surface images of rotationally symmetric parts. It presents a process pipeline that uses a feature-based stitching approach to create a distortion-free and true-to-life image from a video file. The developed process thus enables, for example, condition monitoring without having to view many individual images. For validation purposes, this will be demonstrated in the paper using the concrete example of a worn ball screw drive spindle. The developed algorithm aims at reproducing the functional principle of a line scan camera system, whereby the physical measuring systems are replaced by a feature-based approach. For evaluation of the stitching algorithms, metrics are used, some of which have only been developed in this work or have been supplemented by test procedures already in use. The applicability of the developed algorithm is not only limited to machine tool spindles. Instead, the developed method allows a general approach to the surface inspection of various rotationally symmetric components and can therefore be used in a variety of industrial applications. Deep-learning-based detection Algorithms can easily be implemented to generate a complete pipeline for failure detection and condition monitoring on rotationally symmetric parts. Keywords Image Stitching, Video Stitching, Condition Monitoring, Rotationally Symmetric Components 1. Introduction The remainder of the paper is structured as follows. Section 2 reviews the current state of the art in the field of stitching. -

Computer Vision: Edge Detection
Edge Detection Edge detection Convert a 2D image into a set of curves • Extracts salient features of the scene • More compact than pixels Origin of Edges surface normal discontinuity depth discontinuity surface color discontinuity illumination discontinuity Edges are caused by a variety of factors Edge detection How can you tell that a pixel is on an edge? Profiles of image intensity edges Edge detection 1. Detection of short linear edge segments (edgels) 2. Aggregation of edgels into extended edges (maybe parametric description) Edgel detection • Difference operators • Parametric-model matchers Edge is Where Change Occurs Change is measured by derivative in 1D Biggest change, derivative has maximum magnitude Or 2nd derivative is zero. Image gradient The gradient of an image: The gradient points in the direction of most rapid change in intensity The gradient direction is given by: • how does this relate to the direction of the edge? The edge strength is given by the gradient magnitude The discrete gradient How can we differentiate a digital image f[x,y]? • Option 1: reconstruct a continuous image, then take gradient • Option 2: take discrete derivative (finite difference) How would you implement this as a cross-correlation? The Sobel operator Better approximations of the derivatives exist • The Sobel operators below are very commonly used -1 0 1 1 2 1 -2 0 2 0 0 0 -1 0 1 -1 -2 -1 • The standard defn. of the Sobel operator omits the 1/8 term – doesn’t make a difference for edge detection – the 1/8 term is needed to get the right gradient -
Fast Vignetting Correction and Color Matching for Panoramic Image Stitching
FAST VIGNETTING CORRECTION AND COLOR MATCHING FOR PANORAMIC IMAGE STITCHING Colin Doutre and Panos Nasiopoulos Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering The University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada ABSTRACT When images are stitched together to form a panorama there is often color mismatch between the source images due to vignetting and differences in exposure and white balance between images. In this paper a low complexity method is proposed to correct vignetting and differences in color Fig. 1. Two images showing severe color mismatch aligned with no between images, producing panoramas that look consistent blending (left) and multi-band blending [1] (right) across all source images. Unlike most previous methods To compensate for brightness/color differences between which require complex non-linear optimization to solve for images in panoramas, several techniques have been correction parameters, our method requires only linear proposed [1],[6]-[9]. The simplest of these is to multiply regressions with a low number of parameters, resulting in a each image by a scaling factor [1]. A simple scaling can fast, computationally efficient method. Experimental results somewhat correct exposure differences, but cannot correct show the proposed method effectively removes vignetting for vignetting, so a number of more sophisticated techniques effects and produces images that are highly visually have been developed. consistent in color and brightness. A common camera model is used in most previous work on vignetting and exposure correction for panoramas [6]-[9].

Feature descriptors such as shape context are object/scene level (e.g., pictorial structure model [8] and SIFT used to establish rough correspondence. We then estimate the flow [4]). It is a crucial step in all image analysis tasks in transformation using our robust algorithm. This enables us to which the final information is gained from the combination deal with the noise and outliers which arise in the correspondence of various data sources, e.g., in image fusion, change detec- step.

Edge Detection CS485/685 Computer Vision Dr. George Bebis Modified by Guido Gerig for CS/BIOEN 6640 U of Utah www.cse.unr.edu/~bebis/CS485/Lectures/ EdgeDetection.ppt Edge detection is part of segmentation image human segmentation gradient magnitude • Berkeley segmentation database: http://www.eecs.berkeley.edu/Research/Projects/CS/vision/grouping/segbench/ Goal of Edge Detection • Produce a line “drawing” of a scene from an image of that scene. Why is Edge Detection Useful? • Important features can be extracted from the edges of an image (e.g., corners, lines, curves). • These features are used by higher-level computer vision algorithms (e.g., recognition). Modeling Intensity Changes • Step edge: the image intensity abruptly changes from one value on one side of the discontinuity to a different value on the opposite side. Modeling Intensity Changes (cont’d) • Ramp edge: a step edge where the intensity change is not instantaneous but occur over a finite distance. Modeling Intensity Changes (cont’d) • Ridge edge: the image intensity abruptly changes value but then returns to the starting value within some short distance (i.e., usually generated by lines). Modeling Intensity Changes (cont’d) • Roof edge: a ridge edge where the intensity change is not instantaneous but occur over a finite distance (i.e., usually generated by the intersection of two surfaces). Edge Detection Using Derivatives • Often, points that lie on an edge are detected by: (1) Detecting the local maxima or minima of the first derivative. 1st derivative (2) Detecting the zero-crossings of the second derivative. 2nd derivative Image Derivatives • How can we differentiate a digital image? – Option 1: reconstruct a continuous image, f(x,y), then compute the derivative. -
Edge Detection (Trucco, Chapt 4 and Jain Et Al., Chapt 5)
Edge detection (Trucco, Chapt 4 AND Jain et al., Chapt 5) • Definition of edges -Edges are significant local changes of intensity in an image. -Edges typically occur on the boundary between twodifferent regions in an image. • Goal of edge detection -Produce a line drawing of a scene from an image of that scene. -Important features can be extracted from the edges of an image (e.g., corners, lines, curves). -These features are used by higher-levelcomputer vision algorithms (e.g., recogni- tion). -2- • What causes intensity changes? -Various physical events cause intensity changes. -Geometric events *object boundary (discontinuity in depth and/or surface color and texture) *surface boundary (discontinuity in surface orientation and/or surface color and texture) -Non-geometric events *specularity (direct reflection of light, such as a mirror) *shadows (from other objects or from the same object) *inter-reflections • Edge descriptors Edge normal: unit vector in the direction of maximum intensity change. Edge direction: unit vector to perpendicular to the edge normal. Edge position or center: the image position at which the edge is located. Edge strength: related to the local image contrast along the normal. -3- • Modeling intensity changes -Edges can be modeled according to their intensity profiles. Step edge: the image intensity abruptly changes from one value to one side of the discontinuity to a different value on the opposite side. Ramp edge: astep edge where the intensity change is not instantaneous but occur overafinite distance. Ridge edge: the image intensity abruptly changes value but then returns to the starting value within some short distance (generated usually by lines).
