Abstract

The invention claims the protection of a pointer instrument reading recognition method of a substation inspection robot. The method includes the steps of taking a photo using preset parking of a robot at an instrument to be recognized, roughly positioning the position of the instrument, then performing edge detection for the region, next, performing circle detection using fast Hough transform to determine the position of a dial plate, extracting the dial plate region for multi-angle Gabor filtering to calculate the direction of a pointer, and calculating the reading of the instrument on that basis. The method has the characteristics of low pre-processing requirement, fewer steps, strong robustness for illumination, shadows and other interference, and high accuracy of reading instrument data.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of image processing, in particular to an efficient automatic recognition method for pointer meter readings. Background technique [0002] In the power system, the pointer instrument has a wide range of applications. In substations, real-time monitoring of instrument readings is required to prevent accidents caused by some parameters exceeding the standard. The current inspection method is mainly manual inspection. The efficiency of manual inspection readings is low, the error is large, and the risk is high. Therefore, it is necessary to invent a method for obtaining images by inspection robots and using efficient image processing technology to obtain meter readings, so as to improve efficiency and ensure the safe operation of the power system. [0003] The substation inspection robot is based on a mobile platform with autonomous navigation and precise positioning, and integrates sensors such as visible li...
