Acupuncture point visualization platform based on augmented reality and image processing method thereof

Abstract

The invention provides an acupuncture point visualization platform based on an augmented reality. The platform comprises an FPGA exploitation plate and an upper computer which are mutually connected. An image acquisition control module and a preprocessor module adopt a Verilog HDL language to compile and are downloaded in an FPGA chip of the FPGA exploitation plate. The upper computer is responsible for accurate registration of acupuncture point information in an image and is communicated with the FPGA exploitation plate. Simultaneously, an image processing method of the acupuncture point visualization platform is provided. The platform has advantages that in order to overcome disadvantages in an original acupuncture teaching method, the platform has an important reality meaning and a usage value; an interactive, dynamic and visual model is provided for a user; the platform is a useful traditional Chinese medicine clinic and teaching tool which is good for comprehensive observation and integration analysis.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of image processing, in particular to an augmented reality-based acupuncture point visualization platform and an image processing method thereof. technical background [0002] Acupuncture and moxibustion of traditional Chinese medicine is the treasure of Chinese national medicine. Its unique curative effect of dredging meridians and reconciling yin and yang has attracted more and more attention and favor of some medical workers at home and abroad in recent years. With the international development of traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture and moxibustion techniques centered on classical meridian science have set off an upsurge in countries all over the world, and the demand for learning acupuncture and moxibustion techniques is also increasing. Existing acupuncture teaching methods usually use diagrams, clinics, models of human meridians and acupoints, or students operate and train on their own bodies, so there are...

Problems solved by technology

[0006] In view of the deficiencies in the above-mentioned technologies, the purpose of the present invention is to provide an acupuncture point visualization platform and its image processing method based on augmented reality, using FPGA image preprocessing capabilities and host computer feature extraction and affine transformation algorithms to realize virtual acupuncture points Accurate registration of information on images acquired by binocular cameras; effectively solves the problems of unintuitive acupuncture point positioning and acupuncture techniques, and unobvious teaching effects, improves the interactivity, dynamics and intuitiveness between the platform and users, and makes virtual and real registration The solution to the problem no longer depends on the calibration of the internal and external parameters of the camera, which simplifies the registration of virtual acupoint information
