Abstract:
Described are methods, systems, apparatus, and computer program products for determining the presence of an object on a target surface. A machine vision system includes a first image capture device configured to image a first portion of a target surface from a first viewpoint and a second image capture device configured to image a second portion of the target surface from a second viewpoint. The machine vision system is configured to acquire a first image from the first image capture device, a second image from the second image capture device, rectify the first image and second image, retrieve a disparity field, generate difference data by comparing, based on the mappings of the disparity field, image elements in the first rectified image and a second image elements in the second rectified image; and determine whether the difference data is indicative of an object on the target surface.

Claim (Index 2):
The machine vision system of  claim 1 , wherein the first image capture device and the second image capture device are a camera and, wherein the camera is configured to image the first portion of the target surface from the first viewpoint and image the second portion of the target surface from the second viewpoint approximately simultaneously.
