Abstract - Simulation is an important aspect
to consider when designing an inspection
system based upon machine vision. The tire
inspection system uses thermal cameras to
inspect the surface of a tire. The simulation of
a tire inspection system can yield an optimal
set of parameters for a thermal camera, or
given a specific thermal camera provide
information on the optimal placement of the
camera. Since the design process takes place
by simulation the design can be validated
before committing to the expense of new
