Abstract: A new technique for in-process measurement of surface roughness is introduced which employs an optical method by using double laser beams. This makes it possible to detect the surface roughness ...

Abstract: The effectiveness of the optical method for evaluating engineering surfaces is described in terms of fluctuation properties as a means of a more global measuring technique of products. This is ...

Abstract: A modified reflection theory based on Beckmann and Spizzichino is described which evaluates the surface roughness in connection with Rmax roughness value. Computer simulations due to this theory ...

Abstract: A geometrical adaptive control in an NC turning operation has been achieved by a newly developed noncontact measuring system which can continuously monitor the radius change of a workpiece in ...

Abstract: Dimensional and surface roughness controls in turning have been achieved by a newly developed measuring system based on an optical technique. The aim of these controls are not only to keep a ...

Abstract: The method described here identifies plants by using a machine vision technique. This method achieves effective image detection independent of surrounding conditions, dimensionless image detection ...

Abstract: An assist device for gait restoration powered by body weight has been developed using pneumatic equipment. The aim of this system is to assist people who have weakened lower limbs and require ...
