Inspection system and method for determining three dimensional model of an object

Embodiments of a system (500) and method (200) are described that automate processes to reconstruct models (402) from two-dimensional images (100). In one embodiment, the systems (500) comprise an apparatus (504) that can acquire a plurality of images (100) of an object (102) and automatedly form a...

Summary:Embodiments of a system (500) and method (200) are described that automate processes to reconstruct models (402) from two-dimensional images (100). In one embodiment, the systems (500) comprise an apparatus (504) that can acquire a plurality of images (100) of an object (102) and automatedly form a boundary (106) about the object (102) in each of the images (100). The boundary (106) highlights a portion of the image (100) that will form the basis for the model (402). The apparatus (504) can also select a primary image from the images (100), wherein the boundary (106) in the primary image is narrowest relative to an axis (104) that is common to each of the images (100). In one example, the apparatus (504) can select a secondary image, which is perpendicular to the primary image, and reconstruct the primary image and the second image to generate the model (402).
