Abstract:
1. A system for calibrating a plurality of vision system cameras arranged to provide cross-surface inspection results comprising: an illumination strip extending across a moving surface that provides a region of interest with respect to the moving surface for image acquisition by each of the plurality of vision system cameras; a runtime surface inspection application associated with each of the vision system cameras that provides the inspection results; at least two flags within a field of view of each of the vision system cameras that are actuable to occlude a portion the illumination strip at predetermined times; and a validation application that directs the at least two flags in each field of view of each vision system camera to actuate into the region of interest and that validates at least one vision system camera setting based on acquired images of each of the at least two actuated flags with respect to an expected configuration of each of the at least two actuated flags.
