Automation of Scientific Research of Flat Surface Discontinuities: Structural Solution of a Hardware-Software Complex
Modern trends in the development of science and technology are increasingly using monitoring systems for objects from images that are captured from the video stream. To make a decision about the state of the object, it becomes necessary to obtain a library of images obtained using automated scientific research systems. The aim of the proposed work is to justify the use of automated systems for scientific research of discontinuity on a plane moving surface. The main feature of the study is the appearance on the surface of objects of an irregular shape and the occurrence of classifier conflicts when identifying objects. During the study, the block-modular structure of the system was determined and two implementation options were proposed. The proposed solutions differ in the number of drives that implement the movement of the coils and the structure of the control system. The implementation of one of the proposed solutions makes it possible for trial operation using the “Video Stream” software, which makes it possible to capture images from a video stream. The results of the trial operation of the system proved the sufficiency of using an automated research system to build a library of images captured from a video stream to study its structure and individual parts. The implemented automated system of scientific research is planned to be used to eliminate conflicts of classifiers in identifying defects in a metal strip, in particular, shells.
