Phase I

Contract Number: ----------
Start Date: 00/00/00    Completed: 00/00/00
Phase I year
1992
Phase I Amount
$49,905
An investigation of the feasibility of neural processing for weld-sensor video will be performed. Fuzzy logic will be developed for weld system control. These techniques offer robust and real time processing potential for imagery which is difficult to make robust with "first principles" algorithms.

Potential Commercial Applications:
Potential commercial applications would be in the area of high-technology welding.

Phase II

Contract Number: ----------
Start Date: 00/00/00    Completed: 00/00/00
Phase II year
1993
Phase II Amount
$491,092
