Gray Value Calibration

  • Cameras often do not have a linear response to incoming light
  • This nonlinearity results in a reduced accuracy
  • HALCON allows analyzing and then correcting these nonlinearities
  • This gray calibration can be applied very easily
    • No calibration plate is necessary
    • No special illumination is required
    • Easy programming and integration into an application


application examples  
:: The gray calibration is beneficial for all high accuracy methods and applications
    locating significant points
Locating significant points for tracking
and geometric measurement requires
high accurary
  edge finding
Edge finding is still one of the most
common measurement methods also
benefits from the gray value calibration
  edge and line contour extraction
Edge and line contour extraction
as the basis for measurement of
complex shapes requires highest quality
image data which can be improved
using the gray value calibration
