The experts typically choose the configuration of measurements in such systems empirically. For complex inspections, however, automatic inspection planning is essential. This book proposes a simulation-based approach towards inspection planning by contributing to all components of this problem: simulation, evaluation, and optimization. As an application, inspection of a complex cylinder head by laser triangulation is studied.enInspektionsplanungLasertriangulationsensor-realistische SimulationFourier-OptikOberflächeninferenzUnsicherheitspropagierunginspection planninglaser triangulationsensor-realistic simulationFourier opticsprobabilistic surface inferenceuncertainty propagation004670Simulation-based planning of machine vision inspection systems with an application to laser triangulationdoctoral thesis
