Dynamic structured light (DSL) is used in this computer-based 3-D surface measurement system.

Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) uses machine vision to investigate the discipline itself and to solve problems in other disciplines, such as the automotive, medical device, and pharmaceutical industries and in manufacturing.

  • 3-D imaging and surface inspection

  • Thermal imaging

  • Infrared image interpretation

  • Sensor fusion

  • Neural networks

  • Fuzzy logic

 

Analysis and design of sensor fusion systems are aided by covariance analysis, using SwRI-developed methods.

 

SwRI developed methods for multispectral image analysis, including image registration and segmentation.

Using long-wave infrared images of vehicles, engineers identify stalled cars and other traffic incidents.
