Requirements

Completed and accepted assignments (approximately 3 assignments) and essays and exercises about topics discussed during the lectures. Course has no exam.
Completion parts must belong to the same implementation

Learning outcomes

After completing the course student knows machine vision system types, their components, and their basic operating principles. Student can apply this knowledge and specify and select components for simple applications. Student knows the basic terms, concepts, and methods of programming machine vision systems and is able to program simple machine vision applications. Student knows the most common optical measuring methods suitable for small- and middle size workpieces. According to this knowledge he/she can choose the best suitable co-ordinate measuring method. He/She understands different measuring strategies, filtering of measured points, the terms of measuring uncertainty and how to determine measuring uncertainty by international harmonized methods.

Content

Content Core content Complementary knowledge Specialist knowledge
1. Machine vision systems and their components: applications, basic properties, operating principles, specifying components   More detailed knowledge about camera and camera interface properties, more rare optical and illumination systems   3D machine vision 
2. Basic concepts and methods of programming machine vision systems  Operating principles of most common image processing and analysis methods used in machine vision, suitability of methods for different tasks   
3. Calibration of machine vision system: unit conversion, compensation for image deformations, combining coordinate systems     
4. The principles, and possibilities of most important optical co-ordinate measuring systems (dimesional metrology).   Knowing the principles, features as well problems helps to find the best solutions.   Modern optical measurement and digital operations of picture 
5. Measuring strategies and filtering of points. Different methods to analyse the measured points (Least Squares, Minimum Zone, Chebysev).     
6. Terms of measuring uncertainty. Using harmonized principles how to determine measuring uncertainty. (EA-4/02 and Substitution Method - ISO 15530)  These methods are suitable to any other quantities   

Evaluation criteria for the course

Course grade is determined by successfully completed essays and exercises from topics discussed during the lectures and assignments. Successfully completing and returning all these is required to pass the course. Grade 3 is possible once the student masters the course Core content well. To get grade 4, the student needs to know and understand matters from Complementary knowledge column. Grade 5 is possible if student knows Complementary knowledge topics well. If student has minor deficiencies in mastering Core content topics, grades 1 and 2 are possible. If student has major deficiencies in mastering Core content topics, he or she will not pass the course.

Assessment scale:

Numerical evaluation scale (1-5) will be used on the course

Partial passing:

Completion parts must belong to the same implementation
