Real Time Vision System for the Test of Steam Generator in Nuclear Power Plants Using Digital Signal Processors

In this paper, it is proposed a new approach to the development of the automatic vision system to e famine and repair the steam generator tubes at remote distance. In nuclear power plants, workers are reluctant of works in steam generator because of the high radiation environment and limited working space. It is strongly recommended that the examination and maintenance works be done by an automatic system for the protection of the operator from the radiation exposure. Digital signal processors are used it, implementing real time recognition and examination of steam generator tubes in the proposed vision system. Performance of proposed digital vision system is illustrated by experiment for similar steam generator model.
