Automated Smart Industrial Inspection

Example of defect inspection using 3D CT data.

In our research, we propose to combine image processing with machine learning for an automated smart industrial inspection software for CT images and 3D volumes.

The CTIMS inspection framework.

The designed software has three main modules:

  1. Database management module, which handles the database and reads/writes queries to retrieve or save the CT data
  2. Pre-processing module for registration and background subtraction
  3. Defect inspection module to detect all the potential defects (missing parts, damaged screws, etc.) based on a hybrid system composed of computer vision and deep learning techniques
The user-interface of the proposed CTIMS software.

This project was led by Prof. Hossam A. Gabbar and me as the postdoctoral researcher of the team (composed of two master’s students [ Md Jamiul Alam Khan , Oluwabukola Grace], software developer Matthew Immanuel Samson, and a lab engineer Manir Islam) in collaboration with New Vision Systems Canada Inc. (NVS) and Mitacs.

For a CTIMS demo, please feel free to send an email to Amr Barakat (amrb@nvscanada.ca)
