Abstract

Fluid-based manufacturing processes, such as inkjet printing and electrospinning, fabricate micro- and nano-scale structures with high precision, but are prone to complex fluid dynamics exhibiting axisymmetric and non-axisymmetric instabilities. Conventional monitoring often relies on single-camera inputs and symmetry assumptions, limiting the detection of three-dimensional anomalies like jet deflection. This study presents a novel multi-view streaming video-based anomaly detection framework to address this gap. The framework employs a modified Tensor Sequential Sampling (TSS) algorithm with edge-based sampling to capture geometric spatiotemporal features of each camera view using the videos obtained from an orthogonally positioned dual-camera setup. These features are fused with jet angle measurements via a Multivariate Exponentially Weighted Moving Average (MEWMA) control chart. Experimental results demonstrate that this joint multi-view approach can detect several types of process anomalies including non-axis symmetric deviations, significantly outperforming single-view baselines in identifying non-axisymmetric deviations.
