IMAGE ANALYSIS OF APPLIED ADHESIVE WITH FLUORESCENCE ENHANCEMENT

Abstract:

Systems and methods are described herein for analyzing the application of adhesives. An adhesive comprising a fluorescent property is applied to a component. The component is illuminated using one or more of wavelengths of light from a light source, wherein the adhesive is configured to absorb the one or more wavelengths of light and fluoresce in response. An image of the component is captured using a camera while the component is illuminated using the light source. One or more fluorescence characteristics from the image are determined and a state of the applied adhesive is determined based on the one or more fluorescence characteristics.
