The invention relates to a visual recognition and positioning method for robot intelligent capture application. According to the method, an RGB-D scene image is collected, a supervised and trained deep convolutional neural network is utilized to recognize the category of a target contained in a color image and a corresponding position region, the pose state of the target is analyzed in combinationwith a deep image, pose information needed by a controller is obtained through coordinate transformation, and visual recognition and positioning are completed. Through the method, the double functions of recognition and positioning can be achieved just through a single visual sensor, the existing target detection process is simplified, and application cost is saved. Meanwhile, a deep convolutional neural network is adopted to obtain image features through learning, the method has high robustness on multiple kinds of environment interference such as target random placement, image viewing anglechanging and illumination background interference, and recognition and positioning accuracy under complicated working conditions is improved. Besides, through the positioning method, exact pose information can be further obtained on the basis of determining object spatial position distribution, and strategy planning of intelligent capture is promoted.

A computer network server using HTTP (Web) server software combined with foreground view composer software, background view composer software, a view tile cache, view tile cache garbage collector software, and image files provides image view data to client workstations using graphical Web browsers to display the view of an image from the server. Problems with specialized client workstation image view software are eliminated by using the Internet and industry standards-based graphical Web browsers for the client software. Network and system performance problems that previously existed when accessing large image files from a network file server are eliminated by tiling the image view so that computation and transmission of the view data can be done in an incremental fashion. The view tiles are cached on the client workstation to further reduce network traffic. View tiles are cached on the server to reduce the amount of view tile computation and to increase responsiveness of the image view server.

A system and methods for transprojection of geometry data acquired by a coordinate measuring machine (CMM). The CMM acquires geometry data corresponding to 3D coordinate measurements collected by a measuring probe that are transformed into scaled 2D data that is transprojected upon various digital object image views captured by a camera. The transprojection process can utilize stored image and coordinate information or perform live transprojection viewing capabilities in both still image and video modes.

A method for autostereoscopically producing three-dimensional image information from scanned subpixel extracts uses a multiplex track method (MTV) having a separating raster (TR) obliquely extended with respect to a matrix screen (MB) and an electronic tracking (TS) of viewing areas ibased on two separated image views (L, R), that adjacently disposes two or three subpixels (SP) of each pixel (P) of the two image views (L, R) in the actual subpixel extraction (SPA), continuously and alternatingly preserving each subpixel address and disposes said subpixels (SP) in an overlapping manner on each other with an offset, whereby the resolution loss effects the subpixels (SP) only. The crosstalk resulting from the inclination of the separating raster (TR) is reduced by a special structure of the subpixel extraction (SPA), wherein the resolution homogenisation in two directions of the screen is simultaneously preserved. The formation of the actual subpixel extraction (SPA) is carried out according to multiplex schemes (MUX_i) predetermined according to an observer actual position. One or several observers can be electronically tracked subject to the distance thereof from the matrix screen (MB), and the image representation can be adapted therefor.

Disclosed are a system and method for creating multi-angle views of an object-of-interest from images stored in a dataset. A user specifies the location of an object-of-interest. As the user virtually navigates through the locality represented by the image dataset, his current virtual position is determined. Using the user's virtual position and the location of the object-of-interest, images in the image dataset are selected and interpolated or stitched together, if necessary, to present to the user a view from his current virtual position looking toward the object-of-interest. The object-of-interest remains in the view no matter where the user virtually travels. From the same image dataset, another user can select a different object-of-interest and virtually navigate in a similar manner, with his own object-of-interest always in view. The object-of-interest also can be “virtual,” added by computer-animation techniques to the image dataset. For some image datasets, the user can virtually navigate through time as well as through space.

A computer with a monitor viewable program executes to display a histogram of image data on the monitor. The monitor contemporaneously displays a screen image viewed on a monitor of the histogram, and displays a digital or analog control element that controls both compression and expansion of midtones. Activation of the midtone compression/expansion element alters the displayed image according to effects of programs underlying the control of the element. This histogram display and element are associated on a single logical screen display in which at least one other image data modification effect is present on the screen image as an addressable image data modification effect.

The image view comprises an object image and a laser beam image. Based on the image view the processor calculates characteristics of the box such as the height. Other characteristics of the object may be determined such a length, width, and weight, sender or receiver information, and other related information regarding the transit of the object. The package dimensioner and reader may further comprise a second optical detection device to capture other information regarding the object.

Methods of reducing perceived image crosstalk in a multiview display. One method includes providing an image stream to a display having a horizontal dimension that extends from a first side of the display to an opposing second side of the display. The image stream includes a temporal sequence of images where at least a first image view and then a second image view are displayed on the display in a time sequential manner. The temporal sequence of images are conditioned before being displayed in order to reduce perceived displayed image crosstalk between the first and second image views. The conditioning includes modifying a color intensity of at least selected pixels along the horizontal dimension based on a non-constant crosstalk correction function for the horizontal dimension.

A head guide with a display is attitudinally controlled for guiding the head of a passive viewer wherein the display is for viewing images that are emulative of images viewed by a cameraman with head mounted cameras whose head attitude is monitored for controlling the head guide in synchronism with the images gathered by the cameras. Additionally, the viewer's eyes may be induced to follow a sequence of visual fixations at the same time as the passive viewer's head is induced to execute attitudinal movements consistent therewith.
