    摘要: Methods and devices related to determining image sensor settings using LiDAR are described. In an example, a method can include receiving, at a processing resource via a LiDAR sensor, first signaling indicative of location data, elevation data, and/or light energy intensity data associated with an object, receiving, at the processing resource via an image sensor, second signaling indicative of data representing an image of the object, generating, based at least in part on the first signaling, additional data representing a frame of reference for the object, transmitting to a user interface third signaling indicative of the data representing the frame of reference for the object and the data representing the image of the object, and displaying, at the user interface and based at least in part on the third signaling, another image that comprises a combination of the frame of reference and the data representing the image.

    摘要: A system for registering operating images includes an X-ray imaging machine, a visible-light camera, a rectifier and a computer system. The X-ray imaging machine captures a first X-ray image of the rectifier, and the visible-light camera captures a first visible-light image of the rectifier at the same time. The computer system recognizes the rectifier in the first X-ray image and in the first visible-light image to compute a conversion model between a coordinate system of the X-ray imager and a coordinate system of the visible-light camera. The X-ray imaging machine also captures a second X-ray image of a patient on which a positioning marker is set, and the visible-light camera captures a second visible-light image of the positioning marker. The computer system provides a navigation interface by combining the second X-ray image and the second visible-light image based on the conversion model.

    摘要: A vision guided intelligent system for automated crab meat picking operates in a fully automated or semi-automatic modes of operation using a crab meat picking routine based on (a) the CNN model localization of back-fin knuckles algorithm, and/or (b) the Deep Learning model which accurately locates not only knuckle positions, but also crab legs and crab cores, with a high pixel accuracy (up to 0.9843), and low computation time. The subject system uses a concept of analyzing crab morphologies obtained from digital crab images, and, using a Deep Learning architecture integrated in the system, segments crab images into five regions of interest in a single step with high accuracy and efficiency. The image segmentation results are used for generating crab cut lines in XYZ and angular directions, determining starting cutting points in Z plane, and guiding cutting tools and end effectors to automatically cut crabs and harvest crab meat.

    摘要: A method for template matching can include iteratively selecting a template set of points to project over a centerline of a candidate symbol; conducting a template matching analysis; assigning a score to each template set; and selecting a template set with a highest assigned score. For example, the score can depend on proximity of the template points to a center and/or boundaries of a principal tracing path of the symbol. Additionally, one or more template sets having a top rank can be selected for a secondary analysis of proximity of the template points to a boundary of a printing of the symbol. The method can further include using the template with the highest score to interpret the candidate symbol.

    摘要: A vehicular camera calibration system includes a camera disposed at a vehicle, and an electronic control unit (ECU). The camera calibration system utilizes an intrinsic parameter of the camera and uses a kinematic model of motion of the vehicle that is determined at least in part via processing of multiple frames of captured image data. The camera calibration system, responsive to processing of multiple frames of image data captured by the camera as the vehicle moves along a path of travel, and based at least in part on (i) an intrinsic parameter of the camera and (ii) the kinematic model of motion of the vehicle, determines misalignment of the camera. The camera calibration system determines camera misalignment without use of a fiducial marker in the field of view of the camera as the vehicle moves along the path of travel and without use of reference points on the vehicle.
