Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a vision inspection apparatus and a vision inspection method for inspecting defects in a moving inspection target. The vision inspection apparatus includes an imaging device configured to capture at least a part of an inspection target, a motor configured to move at least one of the imaging device and the inspection target so that a relative location of the imaging device and the inspection target change, an encoder unit configured to detect driving of the motor, an encoder signal processing unit configured to analyze an encoder signal transmitted from the encoder unit to generate encoder data, and an image fusion unit configured to fuse the encoder data to image data acquired by the imaging device to generate fused image data.
Claims20
A vision inspection apparatus, comprising:
- an imaging device configured to capture at least a part of an inspection target;
- a motor configured to move at least one of the imaging device and the inspection target so that a relative location of the imaging device and the inspection target change;
- an encoder unit configured to detect driving of the motor;
- an encoder signal processing unit configured to analyze an encoder signal transmitted from the encoder unit to generate encoder data;
- and
- an image fusion unit configured to fuse the encoder data to image data acquired by the imaging device to generate fused image data.
A vision inspection method comprising:
- moving an inspection target relative to an imaging device by a motor;
- generating image data by capturing an image of at least a part of the inspection target that relatively moves by the motor using the imaging device;
- detecting driving of the motor by an encoder unit;
- generating encoder data by analyzing an encoder signal transmitted from the encoder unit;
- and
- generating fused image data by fusing the encoder data of a time when the imaging device captured the image to the image data.
