Aiming at the detection problem of aircraft riveting aperture
an improved sub-pixel detection method of riveting aperture based on Zernike moment is proposed. Firstly
the collected riveting aperture image was enhanced by histogram equalization method
smoothed by median filter method and sharpened by gradient method. Then
based on the three image segmentation methods of histogram valley bottom method
Prewitt operator edge extraction and Kirsch operator edge extraction
Canny operator edge detection was used for rough positioning and the improved Zernike moment was used for sub-pixel edge fine extraction to extract the ring area of dimple outer circle. Finally
the circle fitting was carried out in combination with RANSAC algorithm. The circle contour was generated and the radius was obtained to complete the fitting measurement. Experiments show that the detection method has strong sub-pixel accurate positioning ability
high accuracy
good stability and repeated measurement accuracy of ±10 μm.
