Embodiment 1

[0044] Embodiment 1 of the present invention realizes the reading recognition of the pointer instrument through the following steps:

[0045]Step (1): Use the LSD line detection algorithm for the image to be recognized, by detecting the drastic change in the gray level of the image from black to white or from white to black, that is, by detecting the gradient value and gradient direction of the gray level of each pixel in the image Straight line, the algorithm does not require parameter adjustment, and can quickly perform sub-pixel-level precision line detection in linear time, extract all straight line segments on the dashboard, and avoid the easy failure and high time complexity of using Hough (Hough) transform to detect straight lines The problem.

[0046] Further, in Example 1, using the LSD line detection algorithm, the middle 64% area of ​​the image to be recognized, that is, the middle 0.8X*0.8Y area (such as figure 2 As shown in the white box area of ​​(a), all strai...

Abstract

The invention discloses a reading recognition method of a pointer-type meter based on machine vision, which comprises the following steps: extracting all straight lines of an instrument panel in an image to be recognized by using an LSD straight line detection algorithm; using length constraint and center constraint to filter out the non-pointer line segment to get pointer line; taking the lengthof pointer line and the distance between pointer line and the center point of circle as weighted values, the deflection angle of instrument pointer in the image to be recognized is obtained by linearweighting and taking the artificial virtual 0 DEG standard line as a reference; and the deflection angle of instrument pointer in the image to be recognized is obtained by linear weighting. The deflection angle of the instrument pointer in the template image is obtained by executing the steps for the template image, and the pointer-type instrument reading in the image to be recognized is obtainedby combining the known parameters of the template image. The method of the invention can realize the reading recognition of the pointer type instrument in the intelligent patrol inspection system of electric power, chemical industry, petroleum industry and the like, and has the advantages of good practicability, strong real-time performance and high accuracy rate of reading recognition of the pointer type instrument.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of image processing and pattern recognition, and more particularly relates to a machine vision-based pointer meter reading recognition method. Background technique [0002] With the development of industrial automation, image processing and pattern recognition technology, for various types of pointer instruments widely used in electric power, petroleum, chemical and other industries, robot intelligent inspection is required to replace manual inspection and improve inspection efficiency. Reduce the risk and cost of manual inspections. [0003] For the reading recognition of pointer instruments, the existing method generally finds the pointer straight line segment through Hough (Hough) transformation, and then obtains the meter reading by calculating the angle of the pointer straight line segment. This method requires that the straight line segment of the pointer is long enough, otherwise it is easy to cause ...
