Abstract
In this paper, we proposed a new car engine sealing inspection system based on image processing and understanding. The car engine sealing inspection plays very important role for protecting leakage caused by inappropriate sealing, which is a crucial point for productivity of car engines. The proposed inspection system has been aimed to enhance the previously proposed sealing inspection systems based on image processing, which have high computation complexity and low performance for correctly inspecting some contamination by oil with similar color with that of sealing. Moreover, the previously proposed system has a difficulty in installing the camera system on the sealing machine. The proposed system considers a difference of images before and after sealing obtained from one static camera. By utilizing a difference of images, the proposed system shows very robust performance using a proposed simple depth checking algorithm for some contamination cases by oil with similar color with that of sealing and the total inspection system is simple and cheap to implement. According to the experiments conducted in a real car product line, the proposed inspection system shows better inspection performance and needs smaller implementation cost than three other previously proposed system working in current car sealing inspection systems.
