Matching / Part Location

The basic idea is to teach the original image (usually a specific region) and search for it in subsequent images: comparing produced parts against a golden sample, in industrial terms. Matching is used in nearly every area of machine vision: measurement, defect detection, completeness, print monitoring, positioning, orientation, 3D and robotics.

Shape-based matching works even when the part is rotated, scaled or partially occluded. It delivers results in milliseconds to separate mixed product types on a conveyor or verify that the right product goes into the right box.
