Abstract: Disclosed herein is system for providing simultaneous machine vision illumination control and human vision illumination control. The system includes a first illumination control output that is configured to provide first illumination timing information for a first illumination source. The system also includes a second illumination control output configured to provide second illumination timing information for a second illumination source. The first illumination source is configured to provide a first frequency band of illumination for machine vision. The second illumination source is configured to provide a second frequency band of illumination for human vision. The first and second frequency bands are mutually exclusive. A related system is also disclosed herein.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods, systems, and devices for providing optimized simultaneous illumination for human vision and machine based navigation vision on a semi-autonomous vehicle. In one embodiment, a system includes a first control output configured to provide first illumination control information including first active cycle times for a first illumination source. The first illumination source is configured to provide a first frequency band of illumination for machine vision navigation of the semi-autonomous vehicle. The system further includes a second control output configured to provide second illumination control information including second active cycle times for a second illumination source. The second illumination source is configured to provide a second frequency band of illumination for a human driver of the semi-autonomous vehicle. The system further includes a first monitor input configured to receive ambient illumination information from a camera system.

Abstract: A method for identifying defects in a web of material is provided. The method may include monitoring one or more characteristics of a web translating along a travel path. The one or more characteristics may include one of position, speed of travel, and direction of travel. The method may include identifying a candidate for a defect by detecting one or more deviations in the web at a first time frame. The method may include monitoring one or more characteristics of the candidate for a defect at one or more subsequent time frames. The method may include determining whether the candidate is a defect by comparing the one or more characteristics of the candidate at one or more subsequent time frames to the one or more characteristics of the web. A related system is also provided.
