The complexity of the coordinate transformation was simplified by choosing the camera coordinate system as the unified reference coordinate system. A flexible planar calibration pattern was introduced to the calibration process, which can be arbitrarily placed and from which the known feature points can be extracted to construct other unknown feature points. With the known intrinsic parameters, the laser projector plane equation was fitted by the multi-noncollinear points, which were acquired through the principle of triangulation and the projective invariance of cross ratio. With this method, the strict alignment and multiple times of coordinate transformation can be avoided. Experimental results showed that the arithmetic mean of the root mean square(RMS) error of distance was 0.000 7 mm.展开更多

The characteristics in imaging system such as focus length of transducer, the swing radius and sampling length etc. could be changed easily in compliance with the researcher's application based on this flexible digital scan converter. Linear interpolation is employed to achieve the coordinate transformations algorithm. Custom-built software is programmed to preliminarily handle the algorithm according to different ultrasound imaging applications. High performance FPGA will implement high speed interpolation calculation based on the preliminary data which are stored in the DDR2 SDRAM from the software. 64 bit 66 MHz PCI is employed to accomplish high speed data transmission. Experiment has shown that more than 500 frame rate could be achieved based on this high speed digital scan converter. The designed flexible and high speed digital scan converter could be used in current FPGA based high frequency ultrasound imaging system.展开更多

Visual system of humans has a unique space variant resolution mechanism(SVR) and log-polar transformations(LPT) is a mapping method that is invariant to rotation and scale. Motivated by biological vision, we propose a novel global LPT based template-matching algorithm(GLPT-TM) which is invariant to rotational and scale changes; and with pigeon-inspired optimization(PIO) used to optimize search strategy, a hybrid model of SVR and pigeon-inspired optimization(SVRPIO) is proposed to accomplish object recognition for unmanned aerial vehicles(UAV) with rotational and scale changes of the target. To demonstrate the efficiency, effectiveness and reliability of the proposed method, a series of experiments are carried out. By rotating and scaling the sample image randomly and recognizing the target with the method, the experimental results demonstrate that our proposed method is not only efficient due to the optimization, but effective and accurate in recognizing the target for UAV.展开更多
