Gene,
What's the depth of field with those?
I bought one of the $20 amazon "endoscopes". I was really disappointed in

This sounds like the most promising idea.
Yes there is vacuum for dust collection.

But if you really want to use a camera, you'll have to contend with purging
a pocket around the lens to keep it dust free.
For vi
I think the machine could be moved via a command to MDI or something
similar.

There are probably a number of ways to do this.

I have 2 files - one is .cpp file (no idea, what it is), the other
seems to be the script itself. AFAIK that guy was using Eclip

There are a number of people that has done just that what you are
talking about for pick and place machines but they are mostly not open

Nothing specific, only a concept - I was thinking about automation of
"put a workpiece in cnc lathe, take finished part out of cnc lathe and
repeat" process. If there is a box with unaligned work
Tip them pocket down and vibrate them, get the dust to fall out (use a
roller conveyor)

Why bother with detecting the pockets. Use a curtain of nozzles that
will blow in various directions. Maybe repeated once or twice and then
blow the lot clean.
A number of swirling nozzle will also work.

Last year I had an intern that created a script, that used opencv to
recognize a part and return its coordinates and orientation angle.
If you know the outer shapes you can then know where the pockets are,
another way if they are likely to be low contrast/full of dust.

We use cameras to check things on production lines, I'd assume from that
experience you would need to traverse the conveyer and when a target is
found blast some air. Is this just to save some air vs an air curtain?

Vision systems can be very light sensitive, which is sometimes not
immediately obvious. Cast a shadow across the parts and the vision
system may get lost. Find someone who does a lot of vision and you

A series of randomly sized wooden pieces (uniform thickness) placed randomly on
a slow conveyor. Each piece has 1 to 4 small pockets milled in them. I would
