Popis: Vision systems have been widely employed in industries to automate the inspection process in products. Their use provides standardized, reliable and accurate inspections when compared to a human operator. Vision systems pass to machines the ability to view and automatically extract features in order to indicate abnormalities in products. This paper proposes a vision system for capturing and preprocessing digital images, besides classifying objects with defect and objects without defect using an Artificial Neural Network model. As a case study, digital images of boxes are acquired and classified on a conveyor belt. Tests reveal that the proposed system is able to classify accurately a box with defect and a box without defect in real time. The main contribution of this paper is the proposal of a system that performs automated inspections in products, in order to detect abnormalities, and it can be easily coupled, modularly, to the existing industrial platforms.
