Abstract
A method for the optimization of illumination in line-scan camera
systems is proposed. By using this method it is possible to calculate
the optimal positions and luminous intensities of the light sources to
obtain the desired illuminance at a surface. The proposed method is
especially suitable for producing uniform illumination on a line. The
method can be used with several types of light source, because
experimental general models can be used for the lamps. The method is
based on the regularized least squares optimization. The performance of
the method is evaluated by comparing the calculated and measured
illuminances before and after the optimization.
