Abstract
Quality of tablets depends mainly on their content, appearance and dimensions. A 100% manual inspection of tablets is time-consuming, unnatural, subjective, error-prone and expensive, mainly due to the vast amount and high variability of the produced tablets. In the proposed project we will develop an intelligent computer vision system, which will be easy to adapt to various tablets and easy to train and which will be capable of 100% automatic control of dimensions, appearance and content of tablets.
Significance for science
In the period of this research project (2006-2008), the project team has published altogether 30 SCI papers: 18 papers in the journals from the 1st quarter, 2 papers in the journals from the 2nd quarter, 2 papers in the journals from the 3rd quarter, and 8 papers in the journals from the 4th quarter of the SCI research fields. Their papers received 45 clear citations in this period, which, besides the scientific results given in section 6, justifies the quality and international recognition of the scientific research.
Significance for the country
The research project has improved the research and development cooperation between the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, University of Ljubljana and co-financer Sensum, Computer Vision Systems – a member of Technology Park Ljubljana. In the last years, the cooperation between these two parties was very fruitful and resulted in numerous computer vision systems, especially for quality inspection of pharmaceutical products. The project has thus strengthen the cooperation between the academia and Slovenian industry and contributed to the efficient transfer of knowledge and technology from academia to the industry and entrepreneurship, which resulted in the development of new high-tech products with high value added.
