A camera vision process control system for the manufacture of rivets

The authors detail the object-oriented design of a camera vision process control system for the manufacture of rivets. The process control project is described, the software design and implementation is covered and finally the authors comment on the experience of developing an object oriented design for the first time. The software design covered is the description of the object model, with the responsibility of each object class discussed and their associations with each other represented using Rumbaugh's OMT (object modeling technique) graphical notation (J. Rumbaugh et al., 1991). The software implementation uses the C language.<
