Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable the detection of a directional foreign matter, by writing a video signal into a frame memory through an A/D conversion to read data bidirectionally-horizontally and vertically. CONSTITUTION:A video signal converted into digital from analog ones are written horizontally into a frame memory in the order of addresses 11, 12, 13.... When the data written in the frame memory are read out vertically in the order of addresses 11, 21, 31..., the video signal obtained is the same as would be when a vertical scanning is done on a video camera. Where the density of a linear foreign matter 2 attached to the tablet 1 changes slowly in the horizontal way, the video signal obtained as the results of scanning over the foreign matter 2 changes so slowly in the voltage to be difficult in the detection even by processing such as differentiation thereof. In this case, the vertical scanning by the above-mentioned method will create a sharp voltage change in the video signal as illustrated thereby facilitating the detection by differentiation processing or the like.

(Prior art) In a tablet inspection method using an industrial television camera,
Conventionally, video signals have generally been processed by performing processes such as differentiation in time series (analog processing). In recent years, high-capacity high-speed memory has become relatively inexpensive, and there are many cases where video signals are A/D converted (changing analog signals to digital signals) and differential processing is performed while writing to frame memory (digital processing). .

(Means and effects for solving the problem) Therefore, the present invention provides a method for inspecting tablets using an industrial television camera, in which a video signal is A/D converted and written into a frame memory, and data readout is performed horizontally. By performing the detection in two directions, both vertical and vertical, it is possible to detect foreign objects with directionality.

(Example) Examples of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIGS. 1 to 4 show examples of the present invention. FIG. 1 shows each address in the frame memory, and A/11 converted video signals are written in the horizontal direction in the order of 11.12.13. By reading out the data written in this frame memory in the vertical direction in the order of 11.21.31--, the same A/D-converted video signal as scanned vertically on the video camera is obtained from the i4. It will be done.
