Polarization Image Data Simplifies Segmentation
Published on November 19, 2019 by TIS Marketing.
Glare and reflections are a common problem in image processing. Given the reflective properties of various materials under polarized light, The Imaging Source's GigE and USB polarization cameras can be used to solve inspection tasks where conventional cameras provide limited visual information. Degree of Linear Polarity (DoLP) processing of polarization image data improves image contrast and allows for more effective image segmentation.
The simple integration of the polarization image data into HALCON enables these properties to be easily used in image processing applications, such as completeness checks, surface inspections, etc.
