Abstract

In order to detect defective rubber keypads, factories have to devote massive manpower and financial resources. In this paper, a vision-based system for the detection of a number of rubber keypad defects is designed and developed. To improve the lens distortion rectification, a novel, easy calibration method using image local transformations defined by both sets of points that are detected in the distorted image and the undistorted ones without using any model for a wideangle and low- cost lens camera was proposed. The system detects the defects of 14 different types of rubber keypads quickly (~within about 1.8 seconds) and accurately even with a normal laptop and a low-price webcam.
