Definitions
- This invention relates to a method and apparatus for calibrating a sensor means for measuring the dimension of an article, a method and apparatus for measuring the dimension of the article as well as methods and apparatus for aligning a sensor means and detecting the location of an edge in an image of an object.
- Quality control and yield optimism of manufactured articles such as steel slabs requires the monitoring of, for example, hot slab dimensions.
- these dimensions are measured by a manual technique using callipers. This technique requires the slabs to be stationary, and mill personnel to come uncomfortably close to the hot material to perform the measurements. It is therefore apparent that manual techniques have many disadvantages.
- Modern electronic technology has made possible development of non-contact in line systems to measure the dimensions of hot steel products.
- the present inventors have found that in arranging the photodiode array exactly parallel to the slab face a large portion of the viewing range of the camera is wasted. By tilting the array so that it is not parallel to the slab face the camera can be moved closer to the slab so that viewing range is not wasted and the method according to the first aspect of the invention will automatically compensate for any distortions which are inherent when attempting to align the array parallel to the slab face or when arranging the array at an angle to the slab face so that viewing range of a camera is not wasted.
- the invention in a first aspect may therefore be said to reside in a method of calibrating a sensor means for use in measuring the dimension of an article by arranging the sensor means so that it will detect the article to be measured during a measurement step, the method of calibrating the sensor comprising locating a reference datum having at least five reference locations so that the at least five reference locations can be detected by the sensor means, at least three of the reference locations falling in a straight line (as defined herein) and at least two of the reference locations falling in a second line parallel to the said straight line, said second line being spaced from the straight line in the direction of an imaginary line between the sensor means and the reference datum; determining calibration values having regard to the image locations of the reference locations in the sensor means utilizing known displacements between reference locations in the datum to take into account perspective distortions due to the positional relationship between the sensor means and the datum.
- a straight line is defined herein to be a line which is straight when viewed from all directions. Since, according to the first aspect of the invention, the sensor means is calibrated to compensate for perspective distortions due to the positional relationship between the sensor means and the datum the sensor means need only be arranged so that they view the article to be measured and the determined calibration values may be utilized in the calculation of the desired dimension of the article to provide improved accuracy in the measurement of that dimension.
- the invention in the first aspect may also be said to reside in a system for calibrating a sensor means for use in measuring the dimension of an article, comprising a reference datum having at least five reference locations all of which can be detected by the sensor means, at least three of the locations falling in a straight line (as defined herein) and at least two of the locations falling in a second line parallel to said straight line, said second line being spaced from the straight line in the direction of an imaginary linebetween the sensor means and the reference datum, said sensor means in use detecting said reference locations, and processing means for determining calibration values having regard to the image locations of the reference locations in the sensor means utilizing the known displacements between reference locations in the datum to take into account perspective distortions due to the positional relationship between the sensor means and the datum.
- the step of determining calibration values comprises the step of forming equations, which include the calibration values, indicative of the displacement of an object coordinate from the projection of a line perpendicular to a sensing array in the sensor means related to its image coordinate, solving those equations to determine the calibration values, storing the calibration values for use in an equation or equations which give the dimension or dimensions of the article taking into account the distortions.
- the method of calibrating the sensor means also determines scaling of displacements between image coordinates as compared to displacement between corresponding object coordinates and also determines unknown relative displacements between the sensor means and a further sensor means.
- the first aspect of the invention may further reside in a method of determining the dimension of an article comprising arranging at least one sensor means to detect the article when the article is in a measurement position, locating a reference datum at the measurement position so that it is detected by the sensor means to calibrate the sensor means by determining calibration equations, including calibration values, for compensating for perspective distortion and displacement of the sensor means from the datum, solving the calibration equations to determine the calibration values, storing the calibration values, removing the reference datum, and then detecting said article with the sensor means to obtain information concerning the article and calculating the dimension or dimensions of the article by means of measurement equation or equations which include the calibration values and the information concerning the article.
- one of the calibration values is indicative of the displacement of a reference location in the datum from the projection of a line perpendicular to a sensor array in the sensor means related to its image coordinate in the sensor array.
- a further difficulty in measuring dimensions of an elongate object such as a hot slab is that the hot slab may exit a rolling mill and travel along a roll table at a slight angle to the longitudinal axis of the table.
- the hot slab may exit a rolling mill and travel along a roll table at a slight angle to the longitudinal axis of the table.
- the skew angle of the slab is therefore necessary to determine the skew angle of the slab with respect to a known axis such as the longitudinal axis of the table.
- the object of a second aspect of the invention is therefore to provide a method and apparatus for accurately measuring the dimension of an elongate article not withstanding the fact that it may be at an angle with respect to a predetermined axis.
- the invention in a second aspect, may therefore be said to reside in a method of measuring the dimension of an elongate article comprising the steps of arranging at least two sensor means to detect said article, calibrating each said sensor means to compensate for distortions due to the physical relationship between the sensor means and the article, receiving information from each said sensor means to determine if the elongate article is at an angle to a predetermined axis and utilizing said information to provide said dimension or allow the dimension to be obtained therefrom.
- the invention in the second aspect may also be said to reside in a system for measuring the dimension of an elongate article comprising at least two sensor means to detect said article, processing means for calibrating each said sensor means to compensate for perspective distortions due to the physical relationship between each sensor means and the article and for receiving information from said sensor means to determine if the elongate article is at an angle to a predetermined axis for use in providing said dimension or allowing the dimension to be obtained therefrom.
- the elongate article is a slab and the predetermined axis is the longitudinal axis of a slab table on which the slab is supported.
- Preferably two sensor means are arranged above the plane in which the article skews, said sensor means being displaced relative to one another, along the predetermined axis, by a predetermined distance and the skew angle of the article is determined from the distance between the sensor means and the distance between each sensor means and a central point of the slab along a line perpendicular to the predetermined axis.
- the invention also provides a reference datum for use in calibrating sensor means to be used to measure the dimensions of an article, said datum comprising a support frame, said support frame supporting at least five reference locations such that three reference locations are arranged in a straight line which will be transverse to an imaginary line between the reference datum and the sensor means when the reference datum is in use, and two of the reference locations being in a line parallel to said straight line and spaced from said straight line in the direction of said imaginary line.

- Figure 11 is a block diagram of a processing system
- Figure 12 is a flow chart of a main control program
- Figure 13 is a view of a camera alignment system
- Figure 14 is a side view of the system of Figure 13.
- the cameras 1 to 3 are preferably line scan cameras which consist of a normal camera lens which focuses an image of an object onto a linear array of photodiodes. The image received by the photodiodes therefore represents only a single line or a narrow band of the object in view.
- the photodiodes produce an electrical signal proportional to the intensity of incident light. Additional electronics within the camera samples the signal produced by each photodiode serially and produces an electrical (video) signal varying in time. This latter signal is therefore a facsimile of the image intensity varying along the length of the array.
- the cameras are all aligned so that their lines of view are across the appropriate slab face and perpendicular to the direction of travel of the slab.
- the apparent width of a slab face as determined from the location of the slab edge images senses by each of the cameras is dependent on both the true width of the face and its distance from the camera. Therefore to measure the sectional dimensions of a slab it is necessary to determine the distances from each camera to the slab faces. This is achieved by taking simultaneous measurements from the two cameras viewing the top and side faces of the slab in the same plane. The dimensions are obtained by solving the following simultaneous equations which are derived from Figure 2 below. Note that the distances dx and dy are not the nominal focal lengths of the lenses, but are the distance from the principal point of the lens to the array.
- Determination of the amount of skew and hence correction of the apparent slab width is achieved by employing a third camera which views the top face at a known distance from camera 2 as illustrated in Figure 3.
- the skew angle is defined by the following expression.
- X m and Z m are the distances along the camera viewingg lines between the middle of the top face to camera 2 and 3 respectively.
- Z d is the displacement between cameras 2 and 3.
- the invention provides a calibration technique to compensate for the effect of perspective distortions introduced by the physical relationship between the cameras and the slab.
- calibration frame 20 which has a number of reference points disposed thereon.
- Reference points 22 to 30 are arranged in a single plane so that they can be viewed by one of the cameras arranged above the calibration frame, for example camera 2 in Figure 1.
- Reference points 32 to 40 are arranged so that they are viewed by camera 1 in Figure 1.
- the calibration frame 20 may include legs (not shown) for securely supporting the calibration frame 20 on the roll table so that the calibration frame is aligned perpendicular to the direction of travel of a hot slab.
- the frame 20 comprises four planes which contain the reference points 20 to 40.
- Reference points 22 to 26 are arranged in one plane and reference points 28 and 30 are arranged in another plane for viewing by camera number 2 in Figure 1 and reference points 32 and 34 are arranged in one plane and reference points 36 to 40 are arranged in a further plane for viewing by camera number 1 in Figure 1.
- the first two mentioned planes are parallel to the top face of a slab and the other two planes are parallel to the side face of a slab.
- the reference points are preferably in the form of lights which are provided in housings so that they direct light only towards the camera by which they are intended to be viewed.
- the reference points 22, 24, 26, 28 and 30 should not be viewed by camera number 1 and the other reference points should not be viewed by camera number 2.
- Reference points preferably have a width of about 3mm and are somewhat longer in length. The image of the reference points therefore appear as very sharp responses which approximate a normal distribution. The centre of the reference point image can therefore be located by finding the mean of the distribution. As the width of the distribution is spread over a number of photodiode elements the reference point centre can be located to an accuracy better than resolution of the camera.
- the reference frame is positioned in the viewing plane of these cameras.
- the cameras are each adjusted to view five illuminated reference points, three in the nearest and two in the furthest planes. This viewing geometry is illustrated in Figure 6.
- A constant (array coordinate dimensions) dependent on viewing perspective and is zero when the array is parallel to the plane of measurement
- m m array coordinate corresponding to the line drawn from the principal point of the lens which intersects the array at right angles. This is nominally the midpoint of the array.
- Equations Al(iii) and Al(iv) can now be rewritten in terms of the constants A,B and K as follows:
- the same calibration frame 20 is transposed from the first calibration position a distance Z D corresponding to the nominal longitudinal displacement between cameras 2 and 3.
- the frame is positioned such that its plane remains perpendicular to the direction of travel of the slab and there is no lateral displacement from its previous position.
- Camera 3 is adjusted to view the five illuminated reference points in the two horizontal planes.
- K z , P z and Z T are determined in a similar manner to those for cameras 1 and 2. In addition to these constants it is necessary to determine the amount of lateral offset X o between cameras 2 and 3 as shown in
- Equation (vi) for the skew angle tangent therefore becomes:
- the article being measured is a hot slab it is not necessary to provide additional illumination. However if a cold article is being measured additional illumination such as conventional front or back lighting or the like could be provided. Furthermore since the temperature of hot slabs can vary between 900°C and 1200oC, the illumination received by the camera can change by a factor of more than 20. The preferred embodiment of the invention may therefore compensate for this by adjusting the camera exposure time.
- the microprocessing circuitry 12 may adjust the clocking frequency of the cameras to maximize the video signal obtained without saturation.
- the sharpness of the edges of the slab images obtained by the cameras is degraded by two factors.
- the first of these is a defocussing effect which results from changes in the object distance from the camera causing shifting of the focused image plane.
- the range of distance for which a lens maintains a suitably sharp image is commonly referred to as its depth of field and is dependent on the aperture setting.
- the second factor influencing image edge sharpness is caused by the radiation emitted from the slab not being constant for the full width of a slab face.
- the temperature of the slab reduces significantly towards the edges of the face resulting in a gradual reduction in intensity of the corresponding image.
- Figure 10 the ideal image of the slab edge would be a step.
- the preferred form of the invention incorporates multi-level digitization of the analogue video signals from the cameras and subsequent software processing by the microprocessor to determine the location of steepest slope in the edge region of the image.
- the main processing unit 12 shown in Figure 11 incorporates an Intel 8085 microprocessor with associated program memory, camera interface, analogue-to-digital convertors (ADC's), direct memory access (DMA) type memories, serial interfaces, a front panel keyboard and display, and power supplies.
- ADC's analogue-to-digital convertors
- DMA direct memory access
- the camera video signal is digitized by the ADC and stored in memory via DMA.
- the microprocessor processes this stored video data to calculate the required dimensions which are displayed on a front panel. This information is transmitted to a remote display and a computer or other logging device via a RS232C standard serial communication link.
- the camera interface includes camera clock control logic and digital signal receivers which are used to control the timing of digitization of the camera video signals. Operator intervention of the processing system is achieved via a front panel keyboard whereby other functions such as calibration can be initiated.
- the calibration constants are stored in non-volatile memory. Additional front panel indication is provided to display any power supply failure or camera over temperature alarms which are also monitored by the microprocessor.
- the preferred embodiment of the invention may also include hot metal detectors which are used by the system to establish the position and direction of travel of the hot slab on the roller table.
- hot metal detectors which are used by the system to establish the position and direction of travel of the hot slab on the roller table.
- the system software is approximately 6K bytes in length and is written in Intel 8085 Assembler Language. It is structured into a number of modules which are exercised as required by a main control programme which is automatically entered into after the system is powered up. This programme, a flowchart of which is shown in Figure 12 initiates the collection of digitized video data from the cameras and processes this information to calculate the slab dimensions.
- the system software also contains other functions which can be initiated from the front panel keyboard. These functions include:
- Another programme which controls the operation of the front panel or console keyboard and display also permits a dynamic display of system memory contents to assist in monitoring the system during trouble shooting.
- the system continuously updates the console display with the contents of a selected memory location while the system is measuring.
- the selected memory location can also be changed during operation via the keyboard.
- a serial communication link from the system to a host computer has been provided to allow collection and monitoring of sizing data.
- the system automatically sends messages at the beginning and end of each slab, and continuously sends new measurement results when available.
- The also responds to control instructions from the computer to send a status message, the last measurement result or to reset after an error.
- the preferred embodiment also proposes a method of aligning the cameras 1, 2 and 3 so that they view the reference points 22 to 40 on the calibration frame 20. As shown in Figures 13 to 14 each of the cameras 1 to 3 (for example camera number 1) is provided with a laser 50.
- the laser 50 is arranged and fixed relative to the camera so that the beam of light which spreads out in one dimension from the laser 50 intersects with a target, such as the reference points on frame 20, corresponds to the cameras field of view.
- the laser beam therefore gives a visual indication of where the line scan camera is aimed.
- the beam may be spread by the use of electro or acousto-optic scanners or a cylindrical lens, the last being the simplest to implement.
- the laser 50 and camera 1 are aligned prior to installation. To preserve this alignment, brackets (not shown) holding them are locked in position. The laser/camera assembly can then be adjusted until the laser light falls on the desired portion of a target. The camera will then be automatically positioned correctly.
- the camera 1 is leveled and aimed at a suitable test target 52 as shown in Figure 14.
- the target 52 is set to the same height as the camera so that the field of view is centralized. This is accomplished by monitoring the video output of the camera.
- the target 52 is moved up and down until it exits the cameras field of view.
- the target is then positioned halfway between these exit points.
- the laser 50 is turned on and is adjusted so its beam lies on the centre of the target.
- the laser camera assembly is moved vertically so that the target moves in and out of the cameras field of view. By monitoring the video output and the laser line, a check can be made of the coincidence of the target moving beyond both the laser line and the cameras field of view.
- the assembly is repositioned at a lesser distance from the target and coincidence is again checked. Fine tuning of the laser alignment may be necessary. This step is repeated for other distances until coincidence occurs over the entire operation distance.
- This technique is suitable for any application which uses a line scan camera without a view finder or one with a view finder where its use is complicated by mechanical constraints or poor locations.
- This aspect of the invention therefore provides a simple and effective manner of aligning the cameras, for example, to view the reference points on the calibration frame 20.
