According to the two indices of inspection accuracy and inspection speed, a planar contour primitive recognition method of thin sheet part dimensional inspection system based on curvature and HOUGH transform is proposed. A contour point classification algorithm based on neighborhood values is developed, and a curvature threshold method is selected to filter the contour points, and a projection height method is selected to distinguish the property of the primitive and classify the contour points, and the straight line primitive and arc primitive segmentation and merging algorithms are constructed respectively by HOUGH transform. The inspection accuracy and inspection speed of the proposed method are compared and analyzed by contrast experiments between the proposed method and four dominant point detection methods such as Chung & Tsai method and so on. The dominant point detection ability of the proposed method is tested by a simulation planar contour which includes all kinds of dominant points. The experimental results indicate that the proposed method can recognize primitives exactly, the inspection speed is fast and the universality is good.
