Conveyor Line Color Object Sorting using A Monochrome Camera, Colored Light and RGB Filters
This paper tests the ability of a machine vision system with a monochrome camera to differentiate colored objects. The system is designed to autonomously and continuously sort colored objects of which the user specifies the desired color(s). The system uses camera color light filters and red-green-blue (RGB) color light emitting diode (LED) lights to aid the machine vision system in recognizing part contrast. Additionally the system is controlled by a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) which is integrated with a Robot that is used to remove parts. The parts are fed into the workcell via a conveyor belt that is controlled by the PLC. The user has the ability to select the desired acceptable colors on both the HMI and the physical pushbuttons.

Monitoring the statistics of turbulence: Fried parameter estimation from the wavefront sensor measurements
Near-the-ground laser communication systems must operate in the presence of strong atmospheric turbulence. The effects of atmospheric turbulence on the laser beam that are relevant to optical communications are a broadening of the laser footprint, random jitter of the laser beam, and high spatial frequency intensity fluctuations referred to as scintillation. The overall goal of our program is to improve the performance and extend the range of optical communications systems by exploring the use of adaptive optics and channel coding. Knowledge of the turbulence conditions and the ability to describe its properties are the key aspects to make these improvements effective. The developed multiphase approach is directed to statistically describe atmospheric turbulence based on results derived from experimentally collected data. Statistics of Fried parameter is derived from of data collected over , and under various day and night atmospheric conditions. Significant fluctuations of are found with the values ranging from and up to , corresponding to the significant structure function fluctuations from to .- 6 July 2011

Bootstrap beacon creation for overcoming the effects of beacon anisoplanatism in a laser beam projection system
We address the problem of using adaptive optics to deliver power from an airborne laser platform to a ground target through atmospheric turbulence under conditions of strong scintillation and anisoplanatism. We explore three options for creating a beacon for use in adaptive optics beam control: scattering laser energy from the target, using a single uncompensated Rayleigh beacon, and using a series of compensated Rayleigh beacons. We demonstrate that using a series of compensated Rayleigh beacons distributed along the path provides the best beam compensation.
