Abstract

In active vision inspection, errors in dimensional measurements are often due to displacement of the sensor and image digitization effects. Using a model of error in linear measurements based on a normally distributed sensor displacement, uniform image digitization and geometric approximation, the accuracy of measurements from a particular sensor setting can be assessed. In comparison with experimental measurements, this error model demonstrates a high predictive ability. Related experiments demonstrate a procedure for assessing the accuracy of sensor settings providing insight into what sensor settings lead to lower measurement variances and thus higher measurement reliability.
