A SURFACE ROUGHNESS MEASUREMENT SYSTEM

It is known for a product to be mass produced by way of a manufacturing process. Typically, a quality control step is used in a manufacturing process to monitor the quality of manufactured products. However, quality control procedures in manufacturing are typically labour intensive. A technician or other person must inspect the product and carry out any necessary tests. The present disclosure provides a surface roughness measurement system and method for determining a surface roughness of a product with an imaging system, a coherent light source, a light sensor and several trained machine learning algorithms.
