This document summarizes a research article that describes a laser measurement system developed to automatically calibrate height-setting micrometers. The system uses a double-frequency stabilized laser and an X-Y stage driven by servo motors to position the micrometer. It combines laser readings with electronic probe readings to calibrate the micrometer and eliminates Abbe offset errors using a double-path interferometer scheme. The system allows calibration to be completed within 2 hours with resolution of 40 nm and uncertainty below 120 nm, providing a more efficient alternative to traditional gauge-block comparison methods.

PC-based Vision System for Operating Parameter Identification on a CNC MachineIDES Editor
Identification of suitable or optimum operating
parameters on a CNC machine is a non-trivial task. Especially
when the material of the component changes, operating
parameters need to be suitably varied. In this paper, a PCbased
vision system is presented for the automatic identification
of component material and appropriate selection of operating
parameters. The objective of this work is to develop a support
system to aid the operator in quick identification of machining
parameters
Towards Rapid Implementation of Adaptive Robotic SystemsMeshDynamics
Current automation design practice produces expensive one-of-a-kind installations where the system cannot be easily modified to
meet changing demands or advancements in technology. It is imperative that we design robot systems to be modular, portable and
easily re-configurable in order to reduce the design lead times and life cycle costs of providing automation alternatives.
The Unified Tele-robotics Architecture Program (UTAP) was developed under the sponsorship of the US Air Force Robotics and
Automation Center of Excellence. A goal of the program was to define and develop prototypes of commonly used software building
blocks for sensor guided real time embedded control of telerobotic devices. Standard building blocks and a non-proprietary
communication protocols would provide the Air Force and specifically the Logistic Centers with a support infrastructure designed to
rapidly and efficiently build and maintain mission critical automation systems.

VISION ALGORITHM FOR SEAM TRACKING IN AUTOMATIC WELDING SYSTEMijmech
Arc welding is an important technology for joining metals and repairing metal products in manufacturing
industries. It is usually performed by a skilled worker. Due to the shortage of skilled workers and due to the
hazardous and unpleasant working conditions, the automation of arc welding is gaining importance
nowadays. Existing welding robots require that the dimensions, position and orientation to be programmed
prior to the process. These robots suffer from an evident lack of flexibility. This paper presents an
automatic welding system assisted by a machine vision system to compute the dimension, position and
orientation of the workpieces. By analysing the image taken by the camera, a simple algorithm is developed
to detect the dimension, position and orientation of the workpieces. The calculated data is then fed to a
controller which controls the welding electrode movement. Use of machine vision system has eliminated the
need to pre feed the workpiece data to the robot and hence the system is made flexible.

Automatic vision based inspection of railway trackeSAT Journals
Abstract Currently, most of railway track inspections are manually conducted by railroad track inspectors. Practically, it is not possible to inspect the thousand of miles of railway track by trained human inspector. This inspection takes too much time to inspect the defected railway track and then inform to the railway authority people. In this way it may lead to disaster. Hence to avoid delay and improve the accuracy, our propose system will automatically inspect the railway track by using vision based method and vibration based method. This method proposes continuous monitoring and assessment of the condition of the rail tracks which prevent major disasters. Our proposed system will inspect the rail track component such as missing bolts, tie plates, anchors etc by using vision based method and simultaneously do the calibration of railway track by using vibration based method. The system provides real-time monitoring and structural condition for railway track using vision based method and calibration to search the fault location on the track. Inspections include detecting defects on tracks, missing bolts, anchor, tie plate and clips etc. In vision based method camera we will use to capture the images or videos. In vibration based method some sensors we will use to detect the vibrations on the railway track. We will extract the signal from 2-D. Keywords: Railway track inspection, Vision based and vibration based method, Image processing, Data acquisition.

Title : A laser measurement system for automatic calibration of a height-
setting micrometer
Authors : C Quan and G Xu
Year : 1997
Start Page : 520
Journal : Measurement Science and Technology
Volume : 8
Issue Num : 5
ISSN : 0957-0233
Abstract : We have constructed a laser measurement system for automatic
calibration of a height-setting
micrometer (HSM). The automation is accomplished by an interactive software tool
which performs
essential calibration functions. The instrument incorporates a double-frequency-
stabilized laser
whose operation is based on the heterodyne measurement technique. Positioning of
the HSM is
undertaken by using an X - Y stage driven by servo motors and calibration is
performed by combining
laser and electronic probe readings. Abbe offset error is eliminated by using a
double-path
interferometer scheme. The instrument has measurement range 0 - 350 mm,
resolution 40 nm and
expanded uncertainty of height measurement better than ##IMG##
[http://ej.iop.org/images/0957-0233/8/5/009/img1.gif] at the 95% confidence
level over the full
range. The whole calibration procedure can be completed in 2 h, making it much
more efficient than
the conventional method of gauge-block comparison. The instrument can also be
applied to various
linear measurements with high accuracy to reduce the measuring time.
