C. Course and Curriculum Development Continuous development and maintenance of all 3 main lab and studio courses: (updating handouts and revising instructions for required software updated versions)

Enhanced the Accelerometer Lab for Embedded Control (replaced the part of the Blimp Lab) and augmented parts of other labs to add additional activities with new RF serial links for data acquisition. Continued semiannual development of a new Game Lab as part of the ongoing effort to develop new procedures for certain labs every semester to reduce academic integrity issues from copying old reports and software. Tested the new CAN Lab for Microprocessor Systems (ECSE-4790) with a team completely unfamiliar with the technology to evaluate the handouts and procedure as self-sufficient stand-alone documentation and tutorial. The results were impressive and the students did a very good job. This has been passed on to PACE as an example of a lab exercise to teach CAN technology with working examples. Continuous updates on equipment and experiments in Real-Time Applications in Control and Communication (ECSE-4760) as software and hardware is no longer supported by auto-updates. Replace and developed work-arounds for failed equipment (a hazard when providing hands-on lab exercises with real equipment).

Revising method for distributing custom-developed course lab manual for Embedded Control to be compatible with new institute auditing and bookkeeping requirements.

VI. Research Grants and Contracts (Give title of project, other senior investigators, starting and completion dates, amount of funding, sponsoring agency.) A. Proposals Approved and Funded

22. Focused Research Center Fast 3D Wafer Stacked ICs in SiGe 50% $500k Among several aspects of this large program, the project here was to develop a method of designing

and fabricating 3-D integrated circuits by bonding 2 or more wafers together and creating interconnections between pairs of wafers. The justification is that 3-D circuits will have shorted interconnect wires than 2-D circuits and subsequently be able to run faster. The test application designed for this project is a combination register file and adder circuit.

21. NSF Lab Without Lights 10% $80k To avail the latest cutting-edge digital hardware laboratory equipment to more students, including

those with physical handicaps, lab instruments were interfaced with a web server and code was written to allow a set of lab experiments to be completed anywhere in the world where a student has access to a web browser. Through the web browser and with software tools, students are able to control all functions on an oscilloscope, power supply, and prototyping board, including the interconnections on the programmable board and the configuration of FPGA chips.

20. DARPA F-RISC Project 40% $800k This very large multi-year program developed a small RISC processor operating in the GHz range

using GaAs HBT transistors and fast CML logic gates. Much of the early work was on characterizing the process and developing accurate models of the devices and circuits.

19. Electronics Manufacturing Program/Automated Rework Cell 10% $250k An automated robotic manufacturing rework cell was developed to replace defective surface mount

fine-pitched components on high-density PWBs. Through the use of a vision system and multiple specialized end-effectors, the system would remove a bad component, clean up excess solder on the pads, dispense solder paste, align and place a new component, and laser solder the leads.

18. Microtomography Inspection 20% $150k A study was made on the requirements of a tomographic system able to resolve features on the order

of a micron or better. Simulations and algorithms were developed to apply this work to the inspection of interconnections on integrated circuits as a tool to characterize new fabrication processes.

17 Neural Network vision inspection of PWBs (X-ray & Light images) 40% $200k Investigated the use of artificial neural networks in the inspection of solder joint on PWBs. Using only

images of good and bad joints to train the ANN, inspection accuracy approached that of human inspectors. Both visible light images and X-ray laminographic images were presented to the inspection system. Two-dimensional FFT and wavelet preprocessing of the data improved the accuracy, although initially it was desired to develop a system requiring no preprocessing

16. IRT X-ray Images of Solder Joints 20% $75k System controller and image acquisition software and hardware were developed to acquire images of

solder joints on PWBs to inspect for voids and irregularities. 15. CNF Automated Lace Cutting System 30% $100k A multiprocessor real-time vision controlled hot air jet tracked a pattern stitched into a lace material to

cut along the edge accurately in 2-D on a moving web. The system used a true real-time operating

Page 28: Name: Department: ECSE Current Rank: Senior Lecturer ...kraftr/RPKraft_Resume.pdf · 1986-1995 Sr. Project Manager, CMP, RPI 1983-1986 Sr. Controls Engineer, Mechanical Technology

system and networked dual processors with inputs from line scan cameras & a shaft encoder and outputs to dual x-y stages controlling the position of the cutters, the airflow, and the speed and acceleration of the web winding spool. The project developed all the line scan vision routines, motion control functions, and networking communication software for the dual processor vision guided cutting system.

14. McGard Automated Die Inspection System 25% $100k A system was designed, built, and delivered to inspect machined dies with a resolution of .0001 in.

and accuracy of .0005 in. using a high magnification lens on a video camera and an x-y stage. The system reads IGES data from a CAD system used to design the die and drives the x-y stage to appropriate positions enabling the vision system to view the desired features and compare the actual dimensions to the design values automatically.

13. DEC Dimensional Inspection of Sheet Metal Parts 15% $120k IGES Data from the CAD system used to design sheet metal parts was input into an object oriented

data base that extracted features from the graphic entities. These features (circular holes, slots, key holes, rectangular holes, tabs, etc.) are used as input to a vision-based inspection system to verify the parts from the punch press machine.

12. E-B Designs Automated Epoxy Dispensing 20% $80k Designed the illumination system and image processing function to detect the position and orientation

of the parts to be coated. Full translation (translation & rotation) of the data was required to map it into the reference frame of the motion controlled x-y table.

11. IBM Intelligent Sensor-based Robotic End Effector 30% $140k An extremely sophisticated end effector for handling wafers in a processing line was developed. The

end effector used a camera and a 4-LED structured light source to detect the position of the wafer so as to minimize the stresses on the wafer during transfers in and out of quartz glass boats, carrier cassettes, and domed wafer carriers. The intelligent sensing of the end effector, combined with a rigid/floating holding mechanism and a computer based controller/signal processor had the end effector actually directing the robot as to where to go to align the wafer with the destination and maintain zero stresses on the edges of the wafers from contact with the holders used for the processing steps.

10. Emhart Powers High Speed Glass Bottle Inspection 35% $130k Developed an electronic imaging based inspection system to detect flaws in glass bottles such as

cracks, chips, surface checks, and embedded bubbles. The detection had to occur at high speeds to allow on-line inspection at production rates up to 10 bottles/sec.

9. Simmonds Precision Aircraft Fuel Gauging System Development Project 30% $130k This phase I project investigated the use of several widely varying technologies to determine the

amount of fuel in an aircraft’s fuel tank under almost all possible circumstances the craft may experience. The most demanding conditions would be presented by a jet fighter undergoing evasive maneuvers that would cause the fuel to exist in some indeterminate state making gauging very difficult.

8. Automated Assembly Program Assembly Verification 20% $100k The AdeptVision II XGS system on the assembly workcell robot was used to verify the correct

assembly position of gear parts of a dial indicator gauge after robot placement using strategically positioned cameras. Robotic assembly system used 3 robots and conveyor systems coordinated by 2 PLCs with barcode reader inputs used to track subassemblies on the conveyors.

7. Pratt & Whitney GMAP Automated CMM Programming Project 25% $120k As part of a highly automated manufacturing system development, this project developed the software

to generate an inspection program for a CMM based on the dimensions and specifications of machined parts obtained from the CAD databases.

6. IBM/Navy CCAPS Electronic Manufacturing PWB Components Survey 30% $80k In a effort to track the current state of the art and future direction for the manufacturing of electronic

modules (PWBs), survey data was obtained from 50 contractors on the specific component technologies used and planned changes over the next 10 years. This data was collated and presented, keeping the identities of individual companies hidden, but showing trends of the entire industry combined.

5. Norton Coated Abrasives Inspection Project 25% $120k A vision system was developed using mathematical morphology transformations to process images of

the texture of coated abrasives (sand paper) to determine its coarseness and create a feedback control signal to adjust the manufacturing process to make corrections if the process was going out of specifications.

4. Robot Safety Automatic Multiple Sensing Project 10% $50k To improve the safety of robotic systems by limiting the exposure of operators or bystanders to danger,

a system was developed with multiple sensors such as for sound, vision, electromagnetic capacitance, ultrasound, etc. and used the sensing to determine if a human had entered the workspace and was in danger of being hit by the robot.

3. Anderson Instruments Intelligent Pressure Sensor Development Project 30% $90k An intelligent pressure sensor was developed to gauge the contents of food storage tanks. A computer

based sensing system was developed to compensate the measurement system’s analog circuits for changes in temperature, humidity, and barometric pressure and provide a calibration system for the tanks in order to improve the readout accuracy.

2. Automated Assembly Task Level Robotic Programming Project 50% $70k Robotic software was developed to permit high-level task oriented programming of a robot arm. One

specific example was a routine for the insertion of snap fasteners during an assembly operation that would automatically exchange end effectors if necessary, pick up a fastener from a feeder, locate the destination position using a vision camera attached to the robot, monitor the force while inserting the fastener, and automatically discard fasteners that went in too easily (undersized) or didn’t fit (oversized) and repeated with a new fastener after discarding the defective one.

(Previously at MTI) 1. Coors EndSpector System 60% $400k This particular application included the inspection and dimensional gauging of beverage can ends, a

laser triangulation gauging system and a feature recognition system. These projects required the development of unique custom image processing routines, which utilized the functionality of the hardware-pipelined processor as fully as possible to minimize the computational time of the algorithms. In the can end inspection system, one of the measurements utilized a precision optical structured light and a highly magnified image to obtain a height dimension which could be resolved to 30 micro-inches with an overall accuracy of 100 micro-inches. This required several new filtering routines. First, the brushed metal surface of the part was very difficult to work with and created a large amount of image "noise" which had to be resolved to obtain the desired accuracies. After that, the precision optical light stripe had to be correlated with a previously measured optimized match pattern to accurately locate the position of the stripe in the image. Additionally, the illumination of the image presented problems that were caused by the high magnification and optimal histogram stretching to maximize the image contrast was performed using look-up tables on the frame grabber/image digitizing board. All image processing algorithms had to be modified to use the hardware pipelined array processing board designed for the six-board imaging system. Methods had to be devised to circumvent problems arising from the finite 16-bit image and word size of intermediate values and 8-bit word size of final results.

Page 30: Name: Department: ECSE Current Rank: Senior Lecturer ...kraftr/RPKraft_Resume.pdf · 1986-1995 Sr. Project Manager, CMP, RPI 1983-1986 Sr. Controls Engineer, Mechanical Technology

Scaling in general always presents problems in algorithm implementation and improperly addressing the problem leads directly to success or failure of a given application. Certain types of filtering and correlation operations are impractical to perform in these theoretical forms because of speed, memory, accuracy and hardware cost contracts. However, slight modifications to the mathematical descriptions permit real implementations, which produce the desired results with nearly imperceptible degradation in performance.

In the feature recognition system, this technique was exploited fully to quickly locate desired features

in the image by pushing the cost- effective imaging hardware to its maximum extent. The results were very satisfactory and the algorithm could be easily adopted to recognize more features and discern between similar objects. As in every system, much of the design involved the proper lighting and optics to enhance and simplify the image processing. Various techniques were utilized in both the recognition system and the can end inspection/gauging system.
