Abstract:
In measuring a dimension of an object to be measured W made of a single material, a plurality of transmission images of the object to be measured W are obtained by using an X-ray CT apparatus, and then respective projection images are generated. The projection images are registered with CAD data used in designing the object to be measured W. The dimension of the object to be measured W is calculated by using a relationship between the registered CAD data and projection images. In such a manner, high-precision dimension measurement is achieved by using several tens of projection images and design information without performing CT reconstruction.
Abstract:
An arm type three-dimensional measuring apparatus includes: a multi-jointed arm mechanism including a probe in a distal end; a processing part for computing a position of the probe, the probe being manually moved; a sensor which is formed in each axis of the multi-jointed arm mechanism and detects at least a force in one predetermined direction and torques in two predetermined axial directions generated in an attitude state of the multi-jointed arm mechanism, wherein the processing part computes a deflection amount in each axis of the multi-jointed arm mechanism based on an output of the sensor and sequentially computes a position of the probe based on the deflection amount.
Abstract:
Projection images of reduced resolution are generated by reducing resolution of filtered projection images and/or reducing the number of filtered projection images. Volume data of reduced resolution is generated by performing CT reconstruction using the projection images of reduced resolution. Each voxel of the volume data of reduced resolution is provisionally divided. The provisionally divided voxels are compared in voxel value before and after provisional division. If a difference in voxel value before and after the provisional division is greater than a threshold, the provisional division is determined to be valid, and division is further continued. If the difference in voxel value before and after the provisional division is less than or equal to the threshold, the provisional division is determined to be invalid and the voxel ends being divided.
Abstract:
An isosurface mesh M is generated by extracting voxels having a certain CT value from volume data obtained by X-ray CT. A gradient vector g of a CT value is calculated at each vertex p of the isosurface mesh M. A plurality of sample points S are generated in positive and negative directions of the calculated gradient vector g. Gradient norms N of CT values at the respective generated sample points S are calculated. The vertex p of the isosurface mesh is moved and corrected to a sample point Sm having the maximum norm Nm calculated.
