Optionally, the image acquisition device comprises an array camera and an acquisition signal controller. The array camera is connected with the acquisition signal controller and used for acquiring image data of the upper surface and the lower surface of the measured steel plate according to the acquisition signal sent by the acquisition signal controller and outputting a first coordinate of a sampling point, wherein the first seat is connected with the acquisition signal controllerThe target is in a coordinate system with the position of the array camera as the origin. The acquisition signal controller is internally provided with an acquisition signal period, and is used for sending acquisition signals to the array camera according to the acquisition signal period, wherein the acquisition signal period is the ratio of the steel plate stepping length L (unit: meter) to the steel plate transmission rate S (unit: meter/second), namely the time interval of the acquisition signal controller for sending the acquisition signals is as follows: τ = LS (unit: second), that is, the array camera captures and acquires data once every interval τ. In particular, the array camera includes two sets of linear scanning cameras. And the two groups of linear scanning cameras are used for being fixedly arranged at the upper part and the lower part of the detection gate respectively and keeping a preset shooting distance between the two groups of linear scanning cameras and the corresponding surfaces of the detected steel plate respectively, wherein the plurality of linear scanning cameras in the group cover the width of the detected steel plate together in a device cascading mode.

Each camera covers a straight line range with a certain length, and 6 cameras jointly cover the width of the steel plate to be tested in an equipment cascade mode. The number of the cameras is determined by the width of the steel plate (or other measured object) to be measured and the scanning range of the cameras (for example, when the acquisition coverage width of the image data of each 3D camera is 0.45 meter, and the width of the steel plate to be measured is 4.2 meters, a total of 18 to 20 3D cameras are required to cover the width of the upper and lower surfaces of the whole steel plate to be measured in a device cascade manner).

N denotes each phaseThe machine collects the index ID of N sampling points at each time, all the cameras are uniformly controlled by the signal collection controller, and when the signal collection controller sends out collection signals, all the cameras start to shoot and collect the image data of the measured steel plate at the same time. Optionally, the image acquisition device further comprises a rate controller and a roller bed. And the speed controller is connected with the rolling machine, and the steel plate transmission speed is arranged in the speed controller and is used for controlling the rotating speed of the rolling machine according to the steel plate transmission speed.

A, a = M · N + N M Represents the total number of sampling points, N, of any surface of the steel plate to be tested at each sampling moment M M represents the number of sampling points of the last camera for shooting any surface of the steel plate to be measured. It should be noted that the origin of the world coordinate system is not limited to a corner of the measured steel plate in the present embodiment. The data collected by each camera is converted into the collected data in the same coordinate system, so that the subsequent calculation of the thickness of the measured steel plate is facilitated, and the accuracy of the calculation result is ensured.

However, since the steel plate to be detected may have mechanical vibration during the detection process, in order to improve the detection accuracy, the first threshold value is set to be the tolerance thickness within the target thickness range.
Specifically, the determining whether the target sampling point is the sink defect point according to the difference between the thickness of the steel plate corresponding to the target sampling point and the target thickness includes: judging whether the thickness of the steel plate corresponding to the target sampling point is smaller than or equal to the difference value between the target thickness and a first threshold value; and judging the target sampling point as a recessed flaw point in response to the fact that the thickness of the steel plate corresponding to the target sampling point is smaller than or equal to the difference value between the target thickness and the first threshold value.
