CogIDProcessControlMetricsAIMDPM PropertiesCognex VisionPro 9.7

The CogIDProcessControlMetricsAIMDPM type exposes the following members.

Properties

  NameDescription
Public propertyAxialNonUniformity
Two-dimensional matrix symbols include data fields of modules nominally lying in a regular polygonal grid, and any reference decode algorithm must adaptively map the center positions of those modules to extract the data. Axial Nonuniformity tests for uneven scaling of the symbol which would hinder readability at some non-normal viewing angles more than at others.

This is a measure of how much the sampling point spacing differs between the X and Y axes.A value of 0 means there is no difference.

Public propertyAxialNonUniformityGrade

AxialNonUniformityGrade is derived from AxiaNonUniformity as follows:

  • A: 0.00 ≤ x ≤ 0.06
  • B: 0.06 < x ≤ 0.08
  • C: 0.08 < x ≤ 0.10
  • D: 0.10 < x ≤ 0.12
  • F: 0.12 < x ≤ 1.00

This is a measure of how much the sampling point spacing differs from one axis to another. A(negligible), B, C, D, or F(excessive).

Public propertyFixedPatternDamageGrade

The FixedPatternDamageGrade is the lowest of the five segment grades and the grade for AG. Grading of AG:

Mean of five segment gradesGrade

≥ 3.53
≥ 3.02
≥ 2.51
< 2.50
Public propertyGridNonUniformity
Grid Nonuniformity measures and grades the largest deviation of the grid intersections from their ideal theoretical position.
Public propertyGridNonUniformityGrade

GridNonUniformityGrade is derived from GridNonUniformity as follows:

  • A: x ≤ 0.38
  • B: 0.38 < x ≤ 0.50
  • C: 0.50 < x ≤ 0.63
  • D: 0.63 < x ≤ 0.75
  • F: x > 0.75
Public propertyModulationGrade

Modulation is a measure of the uniformity of reflectance of the dark and light modules respectively. Modulation, if insufficient, may increase the probability of a module being incorrectly identified as dark or light. ModulationGrade is derived from Modulation as follows:

  • A: x ≥ 0.5
  • B: x ≥ 0.4
  • C: x ≥ 0.3
  • D: x ≥ 0.2
  • F: x < 0.2
Public propertyOverallGrade
The OverallGrade is the lowest of all computed grades.
Public propertyPrintGrowth
Print Growth tests that the graphical features comprising the symbol have not grown or shrunk from nominal so much as to hinder readability with less favorable imaging conditions than the test condition.
Public propertySymbolContrast
Computed as the difference between the light and dark distribution means as a percentage of the light distribution mean. The AIM-DPM standard requires that the image be acquired such that the light distribution is at 78 percent to within a ± 8% tolerance range.

Range is 0.0 (no contrast) to 1.0 (full contrast).

Public propertySymbolContrastGrade

SymbolContrastGrade is derived from SymbolContrast as follows:

  • A: 0.30 ≤ x < 1.00
  • B: 0.25 ≤ x < 0.30
  • C: 0.20 ≤ x < 0.25
  • D: 0.15 ≤ x < 0.20
  • F: 0.00 ≤ x < 0.15
Public propertyUEC
The Unused Error Correction parameter characterizes the extent to which regional or spot damage in the symbol has eroded the reading safety margin that error correction provides.

The higher the unused error correction capacity, the better the symbol quality. Ranges from 0 (all error correction capacity used) to 1.0 (no error correction capacity used).

Public propertyUECGrade

UECGrade is derived from UEC as follows:

  • A: x ≥ 0.62
  • B: x ≥ 0.50
  • C: x ≥ 0.37
  • D: x ≥ 0.25
  • F: x < 0.25

The greater the unused error correction capacity, the better the grade. A(almost all capacity is unused), B, C, D, or F(all, or almost all capacity is used).
