AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, in practical applications, there are the following problems: (1) pointer positioning problem: due to the complex image background information collected by the area array camera, the image processing complexity is high, the real-time performance is not strong, and the pointer positioning error is large; (2) the automatic Reading problem: Since the image collected by the area array camera is not a moving image, it is impossible to dynamically detect the change of the pointer position online, resulting in technical problems such as low accuracy of automatic reading and large errors

Embodiment 1

[0063] Such as figure 1 Shown, the pointer instrument automatic reading system based on spatio-temporal image of the present invention, comprises:

[0064] Line array camera, used to collect space-time images of pointer changes;

[0065] The tripod is used to fix the line array camera so that the collection area of ​​the line array camera is facing the pointer instrument, and the collection line area is perpendicular to the center line of the pointer instrument panel;

[0066] Pointer instrument, used to indicate the reading of the voltage and current of the power supply to be tested;

[0067] The computer is used for image processing, extracting the center position of the pointer, and reading the pointer meter according to the prior information.

[0068] It should be noted that: if figure 2 The schematic diagram and geometric relationship diagram of the pointer instrument panel are shown. in:

[0069] The spatio-temporal image information collected by the line array cam...

Embodiment 2

[0072] Such as Figure 9 As shown, the reading method of the pointer instrument automatic reading system based on the spatio-temporal image of the present invention comprises the following steps:

[0073] S1: Acquisition of spatio-temporal images:

[0074] S11: Construction of the automatic reading system: fix the line-scan camera on the tripod, and set the line-scan camera to be detected by the pointer instrument, the collection line area of ​​the line-scan camera is perpendicular to the pointer at the center, and the line-scan camera is connected to the computer ,Such as figure 1 and figure 2 shown;

[0075] S12: Collect spatio-temporal images, including the following situations:

[0076] Situation 1: Acquire the space-time image of the pointer at the zero point: short-circuit the input terminal of the pointer instrument, use a line array camera to collect the space-time image of the pointer at the zero point, and store it in the computer for image processing. The zero ...

Embodiment 3

[0108] The present invention will be explained below in conjunction with specific data.

[0109] image 3 The zero point of the middle pointer is K=139.2, Figure 4 The full scale point of the middle pointer is M=1491.9, Figure 6 The pointer is at 12.27V.

[0110] In this example, the total number of pixels in the pointer rotation area is N=1352.7, the full-scale rotation angle of the pointer instrument panel is β=90°, and the full-scale reading of the instrument panel is range=FS=20V. The voltage resolution of each pixel is Re=FS / N=0.015V.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a pointer instrument automatic reading system and reading method based on spatio-temporal images, belonging to the technical field of instruments and meters. Background technique [0002] Due to the advantages of simple structure, stability and reliability, low cost, and no need for power supply, pointer instruments are still widely used in industrial engineering and power departments for equipment monitoring and monitoring. Since most of the pointer instruments do not have a built-in digital communication interface, the previous manual inspection, meter reading, and recording modes can no longer meet the requirements of the factory for management and production efficiency, nor can the data be imported into the computer for storage and calculation in real time. With the development of automation and informatization, the automatic reading technology of pointer instruments has also developed accordingly. [0003] At present, the...
