Abstract
A parts matching system includes a camera: a depth sensor: a dichroic mirror that passes light of an image scene of a device under test to the camera and reflects laser light emitted from the depth sensor to the device under test and reflects the laser light reflected from the device under test to the depth sensor; and a computer that processes (i) data received from the depth sensor to determine a distance of the device under test to the camera and (ii) image data of the device under test received from the camera.
Claims20
A method of matching parts, the method comprising the steps of:
- determining a distance from a device under test to a camera using a laser beam along a first optical path;
- determining a control signal for a lens;
- adjusting a focus of the lens based on the determined control signal;
- capturing an image of the device under test using a second optical path different from the first optical path;
- processing the captured image and comparing the captured image to a predetermined image;
- and
- displaying a result of the comparison of the captured image to the predetermined image.
A non-transitory machine-readable medium having stored thereon a plurality of executable instructions comprising instructions to:
- determine a distance from a device under test to a camera using a laser beam along a first optical path;
- determine a control signal for a lens;
- adjust a focus of the lens based on the determined control signal;
- capture an image of the device under test using a second optical path different from the first optical path;
- process the captured image and comparing the captured image to a predetermined image;
- and
- display a result of the comparison of the captured image to the predetermined image.
