An Automatic On-Line Inspection of the Remotely Located Manufacturing Process Based on Neural Network Data Compression and Joint Photographic Experts Group

신경망 데이타 압축과 JPEG(표준정지영상압축기법)에 의한 원거리에 위치한 제조공정의 온라인 자동검사

This paper presents an automatic tele-inspection scheme for the remotely manufacturing process. The remote-manufacturing process is continuously monitored and a crucial process is captured by CCD Camera. The captured image is compressed by neural network and JPEG, and it is sent directly to the assembly plant for incoming inspection. Massive image data require broadband channel to transmit them to remote distance, but sender is able to transmit them to receiver in use common channel by compressing massive image data in the high ratio. After the receiver reconstructs the compressed image to be transmitted, the reconstructed image is also directly used for automatic inspection of the process. The Experimental results show that the proposed inspection mechanism could be effectively implemented for real applications.
