Portable Tool Reference Image Generation for Work Target Identification
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing tool systems struggle to effectively identify current work targets using reference images, as the images may not be suitable for accurate identification.
Innovation Solution
A tool system that includes a reference image generating unit, which generates a reference image based on a second captured image shot by an image capturing unit of a second tool, while displaying the second captured image on a display unit, allowing for the use of a more suitable reference image for identifying the current work target.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If a reference image is used to identify the current work target, then the tool system can automate work target identification, but the identification accuracy is insufficient because the reference image is not suitable for accurate identification
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary image capture and processing to generate a suitable reference image before the actual work target identification. The image capturing unit captures an image of the work target, and the control unit processes this image to create a reference image with optimal characteristics for identification, ensuring both accuracy and reliability are achieved in advance
Solution Approach 2:
The system creates a copy of the work target image through the image capturing unit and processes it to generate a reference image. This copied and processed reference image serves as a template for subsequent identification tasks, improving identification accuracy while maintaining reliability through the copying and optimization process

AI summary
A tool system is used for a plurality of tools. Each of the plurality of tools is a portable tool and includes: a driving unit to be activated with power supplied from a power source; and an image capturing unit. The tool system includes a reference image generating unit and an output unit. The reference image generating unit generates, based on a second captured image, a reference image to be compared with a first captured image. The first captured image is shot, while a current work target is being identified, by the image capturing unit. The second captured image is also shot by the image capturing unit. The output unit makes a display unit display the second captured image while the reference image generating unit is generating the reference image.
