Novel fuzzy test patterns and their application in the measurement of geometric characteristics of displays

Abstract

One of the final steps in a display production line is the image alignment that includes the visual adjustment of the geometric parameters and the color of the image. Measurement of geometric characteristics using machine vision is a necessary function in the automatic alignment of displays’ image in the factory. A critical part in the measurement of the geometric attributes is to precisely locate a test pattern position on the display screen. In this paper we introduce novel patterns as fuzzy test patterns and present a novel algorithm to precisely locate the fuzzy test pattern in captured images of the display screen. We experimentally show that the application of the proposed fuzzy test pattern and its associated locating algorithm increases the precision and robustness of the geometric measurements of a display like a TV display. The use of this new measurement method in an auto-alignment system increases the adjustment accuracy, improves the reliability of the alignment system, and improves the quality of images on the display of the adjusted display sets.
