THE PAPER DISCUSSES THE DEVELOPMENT OF A VISION- BASED SURFACE FOLLOWING CONTOUR SENSOR IN THE CONTEXT OF TRAINING A ROBOT TO AUTOMATICALLY BUILD DATA SETS WHICH DEFINE THE WORK SURFACE OF A PART. THE SENSOR WAS DEVELOPED FOR THE PURPOSE OF SURFACE MAPPING PARTS THAT HAVE NO DATA FILES (E.G., CAD, NC) FOR MACHINING, SUCH AS THERMOPLASTIC AND GRAPHITE COMPOSITE PARTS. ONCE MAPPED, THE PARTS CAN BE MACHINED USING AUTOMATED PROCESSES.
