Abstract:
A system and method for determining inflection points in an image of an object includes obtaining the image of the object, performing binary image processing on a border of the image to obtain border points, selecting a predetermined number of the border points to fit a straight line, calculating a vertical distance between each selected border point and the straight line, and obtaining a total distance. The method further includes adding a new border point to the selected border points if the total distance is less than a predetermined value, so as to fit a new straight line and do a loop cycle, otherwise, regarding a last border point of the selected border points as an inflection point, and sequentially selecting the predetermined number of other border points to fit another new straight line.
Abstract:
A method and system for computing and displaying a roundness error of an object specifies different colors that respectively represents an error range of points. The method and system receives a point cloud of the object and fits a circle based on the point cloud. The method and system computes an error of each point in the point cloud by computing a distance between the each point and the circle, colorizes the points in the point cloud according to the errors and the specified colors, and generates and outputting a graphic roundness error analysis report.

Abstract:
The present invention provides for a metal coating composition that includes a resin system with at least one unsaturated polyester polyol and a curing agent such as an isocyanate or a melamine. The compositions are suitable as a primer and provide good adhesion and moisture resistance to metal substrates.
Abstract:
The present invention provides for a resin system and coating composition suitable for direct application to metal substrates. The composition may include a phosphate functional polyester. The polyester may be an unsaturated polyester polyol. The coating composition may further include a suitable curing agent, such as an isocyanate or melamine. The composition can be applied through traditional application equipment onto a variety of metal substrates and cures to an acceptable surface for further processing, such as top coating with basecoat and clearcoat.
