arXiv:2609.03970v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Accurate identification of weld seam geometries is essential for automated robotic post processing operations such as grinding, finishing, and inspection. For large workpieces, complete surface scanning using high precision laser scanners or structured light sensors can be time consuming and often generates substantial amount of data that are not relevant. This paper presents an experimental vision based pipeline for the approximate localization of weld seams. This serves as a preliminary stage before high precision measurement. The proposed approach aims to reduce the overall scanning effort and data acquisition efficiency. The proposed method includes capturing images of the workpiece from multiple viewpoints, identifying weld seams from the images using semantic segmentation, reconstructing the workpiece using photogrammetry, and projection of identified weld seams into the reconstructed model.
