Abstract A contact probing system for surface imaging and real-time signal measurement of deep sub-micron integrated circuits is discussed. The probe fits on a standard probe-station and utilizes a conductive atomic force microscope tip to rapidly measure the surface topography and acquire real-time highfrequency signals from features as small as 0.18 micron. The micromachined probe structure minimizes parasitic coupling and the probe achieves a bandwidth greater than 3 GHz, with a capacitive loading of less than 120 fF. High-resolution images of submicron structures and waveforms acquired from high-speed devices are presented.

AbstractIn this study, the novel approach of real-time video stabilization system using a high-frame-rate (HFR) jitter sensing device is demonstrated to realize the computationally efficient technique of digital video stabilization for high-resolution image sequences. This system consists of a high-speed camera to extract and track feature points in gray-level $$512\times 496$$512×496 image sequences at 1000 fps and a high-resolution CMOS camera to capture $$2048\times 2048$$2048×2048 image sequences considering their hybridization to achieve real-time stabilization. The high-speed camera functions as a real-time HFR jitter sensing device to measure an apparent jitter movement of the system by considering two ways of computational acceleration; (1) feature point extraction with a parallel processing circuit module of the Harris corner detection and (2) corresponding hundreds of feature points at the current frame to those in the neighbor ranges at the previous frame on the assumption of small frame-to-frame displacement in high-speed vision. The proposed hybrid-camera system can digitally stabilize the $$2048\times 2048$$2048×2048 images captured with the high-resolution CMOS camera by compensating the sensed jitter-displacement in real time for displaying to human eyes on a computer display. The experiments were conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness of hybrid-camera-based digital video stabilization such as (a) verification when the hybrid-camera system in the pan direction in front of a checkered pattern, (b) stabilization in video shooting a photographic pattern when the system moved with a mixed-displacement motion of jitter and constant low-velocity in the pan direction, and (c) stabilization in video shooting a real-world outdoor scene when an operator holding hand-held hybrid-camera module while walking on the stairs.

For precise assembly of miniature parts, the precise inspection for parts’ posture and real-time servo control for assembly greatly depend on the performance of visual inspection system. This paper proposed a high-resolution real-time visual inspection system of micro assembly. The CMOS image sensor and high-speed digital signal processing chip were chosen to design the image acquisition module, image processing module and image display module. High-accuracy display on the common display device was implemented with the video encoding chip and FPGA. The test results showed that the processing speed with preprocessing could reach 3.5 frames per second with 5 mega-pixel resolution, and the display accuracy after threshold processing had little loss. Micro parts assembly experiment and high accuracy Peg-in-Hole assembly experiment are done to test the performance of the proposed visual inspection system. This visual inspection system can be used for high-resolution real-time micro assembly and other real-time visual servo control.

The existing phase-shift methods are effective in achieving high-speed, high-precision, high-resolution, real-time shape measurement of moving objects; however, a phase-unwrapping method that can handle the motion of target objects in a real environment and is robust against global illumination as well is yet to be established. Accordingly, a robust and highly accurate method for determining the absolute phase, using a minimum of three steps, is proposed in this study. In this proposed method, an order structure that rearranges the projection pattern for each period of the sine wave is introduced, so that solving the phase unwrapping problem comes down to calculating the pattern order. Using simulation experiments, it has been confirmed that the proposed method can be used in high-speed, high-precision, high-resolution, three-dimensional shape measurements even in situations with high-speed moving objects and presence of global illumination. In this study, an experimental measurement system was configured with a high-speed camera and projector, and real-time measurements were performed with a processing time of 1.05 ms and a throughput of 500 fps.
