ABSTRACT:
A sewing system which includes a workholder arranged to hold a part to be sewn; one or more video cameras, such as C.C.D cameras, mounted above the workholder in such a manner that the area of the workholder is totally covered by the combined fields of view of all mounted cameras; a plurality of illuminating lights mounted above and around the table so that illumination can be applied on the part to be sewn by any desired combination of these lights; a frame grabber coupled to one or more cameras and arranged to receive images therefrom and to combine the images into one virtual macro picture; a microcomputer arranged to receive the macro picture from the frame grabber, analyze the macro picture and measure the location of all the edges of the part and its location on the workholder; and a man-machine interface for inputting sewing parameters, such as stitch size, distance from the edge and number of back-tachs, and to generate therefrom a sewing program for sewing the part along its edges.
