POSITION INSPECTION SYSTEM, COMPONENT ASSEMBLY SYSTEM, AND POSITION INSPECTION DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240286291 titled 'POSITION INSPECTION SYSTEM, COMPONENT ASSEMBLY SYSTEM, AND POSITION INSPECTION DEVICE
The abstract of a patent application describes a position inspection system that includes a gripping unit, shooting unit, and processor. The processor identifies the rotational amount of an object from the proper position in an inspection image and calculates a correction angle based on control information of the gripping unit.
- Gripping unit that grips an object
- Shooting unit that captures an inspection image of the object
- Processor that calculates the rotational amount and correction angle of the object
- System helps in identifying the proper position of the object within a plane of the inspection image
- Correction angle is calculated based on the direction in which a particular portion of the object is facing
- Second rotational amount of the object is identified based on the first rotational amount and correction angle
Potential Applications: - Quality control in manufacturing processes - Robotics and automation systems - Inspection and surveillance systems
Problems Solved: - Ensures accurate positioning of objects for inspection - Improves efficiency in quality control processes - Enhances precision in robotic operations
Benefits: - Increased accuracy in object inspection - Time and cost savings in manufacturing processes - Improved overall quality control
Commercial Applications: Title: "Advanced Position Inspection System for Enhanced Quality Control" This technology can be used in industries such as automotive, electronics, and pharmaceuticals for quality control and inspection purposes. It can also be integrated into robotic systems for precise positioning and alignment tasks.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the system calculate the correction angle for the object? The correction angle is calculated based on the control information of the gripping unit and the direction in which a particular portion of the object is facing.
2. What are the potential benefits of using this position inspection system in manufacturing processes? This system can lead to increased efficiency, accuracy, and cost savings in manufacturing processes by ensuring proper positioning and alignment of objects for inspection.
Original Abstract Submitted
a position inspection system includes a gripping unit that grips an object, a shooting unit that shoots an inspection image of the object gripped by the gripping unit, and a processor. the processor identifies a first rotational amount of the object from the proper position within a plane of the inspection image. the processor identifies, based on control information of the gripping unit, a correction angle between a direction in which a particular portion of the object is facing and a shooting direction of the inspection image. the processor identifies, based on the first rotational amount and the correction angle, a second rotational amount of the object from the proper position about the direction in which the particular portion of the object is facing.
