Abstract

Laser-stripe sensors are still very rare in industrial applications due to their high prices. Therefore a new FPGA-solution was introduced that combines high parallel processing power with very attractive prices. Low space requirements of the FPGA allow for easy integration into the sensor head with robust serial data transmission. The FPGA-unit is not only applicable to laser-stripe sensors with up to eight stripes but can also be used to implement filter algorithms for degraded sensor images. It was shown, that a new digital filter using an FIR-bandpass could drastically improve the profile quality of frames degraded by the impacts of a welding process. Due to the parallel processing structure of FPGAs it will be possible to implement even these complex image filters in real time.
