A photogrammetric machine vision system, called Mapvision, has been developed at the Technical Research Centre of Finland. The paper deals with the principles of real-time photogrammetry as applied to machine vision. There is a brief overview of the present machine vision markets and the commercial systems available. The practical examples presented concern the tentative experiences in applying the Mapvision and its preceding prototype system for industrial inspection and assembly control.
