VR AR 3D Container Inspection System
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current security inspection methods for containers, such as X-ray transmission systems, burden inspectors with prolonged monitoring and often require unpacking, which is complex, time-consuming, and poses safety risks, especially when dealing with concealed dangerous goods.
Innovation Solution
An image data processing method and system utilizing 3D scanning and virtual or augmented reality to reconstruct and display the contents of containers, allowing inspectors to interactively inspect goods in a digital environment, reducing the need for physical unpacking and enhancing safety and efficiency.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If traditional X-ray transmission systems are used for container inspection, then goods information can be obtained through monitoring, but inspectors experience great burden and fatigue due to prolonged monitoring requirements
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a virtual three-dimensional image that is a digital copy of the container's internal structure and contents. This virtual model allows inspectors to examine goods from any angle and at any time without prolonged monitoring, eliminating inspector fatigue while maintaining comprehensive inspection capability
Solution Approach 2:
The patent transitions from traditional two-dimensional X-ray images to three-dimensional virtual representations. This dimensional enhancement provides depth perception and spatial understanding, allowing inspectors to analyze goods more efficiently without extended monitoring periods
2Measurement precision
If unpacking inspection is performed on containers, then detailed examination of goods is possible, but the process becomes complex and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
Instead of physically unpacking containers, the patent creates a detailed virtual copy of the container's interior and contents. This digital replica enables comprehensive examination of goods from multiple perspectives without the complexity and time consumption of physical unpacking operations
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces a virtual reality system as an intermediary between the inspector and the physical container. This intermediary provides detailed visual access to container contents without requiring physical manipulation or unpacking, simplifying the inspection process while maintaining examination detail
3Measurement precision
If unpacking inspection is performed on containers with tightly arranged goods, then detailed examination is possible, but reassembling goods becomes difficult
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a virtual replica of the container and its contents, allowing detailed examination of tightly arranged goods without physical disruption. The original container and goods remain undisturbed, eliminating reassembly difficulties while providing comprehensive inspection capability
4Measurement precision
If direct on-site unpacking inspection is performed on containers with concealed dangerous goods, then thorough inspection is possible, but personal safety of inspectors is threatened
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a virtual copy of the container's interior, allowing thorough inspection of potentially dangerous goods without physical contact. Inspectors can examine hazardous materials, suspicious packages, or unstable objects from a safe distance through the virtual model, eliminating safety threats while maintaining inspection thoroughness
Solution Approach 2:
The virtual reality system serves as a protective intermediary between inspectors and potentially hazardous contents. This intermediary enables comprehensive inspection of dangerous goods without exposing inspectors to physical risks, resolving the safety contradiction

AI summary
A method, a device and a security system for image data processing based on VR or AR are disclosed. In one aspect, an example image data processing method includes reconstructing, based on three-dimensional (3D) scanned data of a containing apparatus in which objects are contained, a 3D image of the containing apparatus and the objects contained in the containing apparatus. The reconstructed 3D image is stereoscopically displayed. Manipulation information is determined for at least one of the objects in the containing apparatus based on positioning information and action information of a user. At least a 3D image of the at least one object is reconstructed based on the determined manipulation information. The at least one reconstructed object is presented on the displayed 3D image.
