Turbine Blade Image Processing System, Neal S. Page, Wesley E. Snyder, Sarah A. Rajala

Sarah A. Rajala

A vision system has been developed at North Carolina State University to identify the orientation and three dimensional location of steam turbine blades that are stacked in an industrial A-frame cart. The system uses a controlled light source for structured illumination and a single camera to extract the information required by the image processing software to calculate the position and orientation of a turbine blade in real time.
