When I started work in 1979, I was involved in the polishing contract which was a robotic grinding rig for Walker Crossweller showers and taps. The computer controlling the seven stepper motors was fed information from a CCD camera made by Integrated Photomatrix of Dorchester. Although only a 200 by 200 monochrome image it was enough to tell the system whether the casting flash had been sufficiently removed.
