ABSTRACT:
An object positioning solves said problems encountered in machine vision, which employs electro-optic (EO) image sensors enhanced with integrated laser ranger, global positioning system/inertial measurement unit, and integrates these data to get reliable and real time object position. An object positioning and data integrating system comprises EO sensors, a MEMS IMU, a GPS receiver, a laser ranger, a preprocessing module, a segmentation module, a detection module, a recognition module, a 3D positioning module, and a tracking module, in which autonomous, reliable and real time object positioning and tracking can be achieved.
