In this paper, the robot arm Dobot Magician and the Raspberry Pi development platform were used to integrate image processing and robot-arm drawing. For this system, the Python language built into Raspberry Pi was used as the working platform, and the real-time image stream collected by the camera was used to determine the contour pixel coordinates of image objects. We then performed gray-scale processing, image binarization, and edge detection. This paper proposes an edge-point sequential arrangement method, which arranges the edge pixel coordinates of each object in an orderly manner and places them in a set. Orderly arrangement means that the pixels in the set are arranged counterclockwise to the closed curve of the object shape. This arrangement simplifies the complexity of subsequent image processing and calculation of the drawing path. The number of closed curves represents the number of strokes in the drawing of the manipulator. In order to reduce the complexity of the drawing of the manipulator, a fewer number of closed curves will be necessary. To achieve this goal, we not only propose the 8-NN (abbreviation for eight-nearestneighbor) search, but also use to the 16-NN search and the 24-NN search methods. Drawing path points are then converted into drawing coordinates for the Dobot Magician through the Raspberry Pi platform. The structural design of the Dobot reduces the complexity of the experiment, and its attitude and positioning control can be accurately carried out through the built-in API function or the underlying communication protocol, which is more suitable for drawing applications than other fixed-point manipulators. Experimental results show that the 24-NN search method can effectively reduce the number of closed curves and the number of strokes drawn by the manipulator....
In order to study the application of image processing technology in remote monitoring and intelligent medical systems, the principle and implementation method of a remote intelligent image monitoring system based on virtual local area network is proposed; this method analyzes the key technologies to be considered in the remote realization of image monitoring, adopts advanced digital image compression coding and decoding technology and digital image transmission technology, and applies intelligent image processing and recognition technology to display, adjust, and track images; it overcomes the defects that the general monitoring system requires excessive intervention by monitoring personnel and low intelligence. After verification, the experimental results show that the proposed model can accurately and efficiently segment nonoverlapping cervical cell images, and compared with other existing models, this model has both higher segmentation accuracy and faster calculation speed. ,e application of multicast is still only in the laboratory or small local area network; with the further development of network technology, its application prospects will be very broad....
We present a software package for the supervised classification of images useful for covertype mapping of freshwater habitat (e.g., water surface, gravel bars, vegetation). The software allows the user to select a representative subset of pixels within a specific area of interest in the image that the user has identified as a cover-type habitat of interest. We developed a graphical user interface (GUI) that allows the user to select single pixels using a dot, line, or group of pixels within a defined polygon that appears to the user to have a spectral similarity. Histogram plots for each band of the selected ground-truth subset aid the user in determining whether to accept or reject it as input data for the classification processes. A statistical model, or classifier, is then built using this pixel subset to assign every pixel in the image to a best-fit group based on reflectance or spectral similarity. Ideally, a classifier incorporates both spectral and spatial information. In our software, we implement quadratic discriminant analysis (QDA) for spectral classification and choose three spatial methods—mode filtering, probability label relaxation, and Markov random fields—to incorporate spatial context after computation of the spectral type. This multi-step interactive process makes the software quantitatively robust, broadly applicable, and easily usable for cover-type mapping of rivers, their floodplains, wetlands often components of these functionally linked freshwater systems. Indeed, this supervised classification approach is helpful for a wide range of cover-type mapping applications in freshwater systems but also estuarine and coastal systems as well. However, it can also aid many other applications, specifically for automatic and quantitative extraction of pixels that represent the water surface area of rivers and floodplains....
Much information can be derived from operational deflection shapes of vibrating structures and the magnification of their motion. However, the acquisition of deflection shapes usually requires a manual definition of an object’s points of interest, while general motion magnification is computationally inefficient. We propose easy extraction of operational deflection shapes straight from vision data by analyzing and processing optical flow information from the video and then, based on these graphs, morphing source data to magnify the shape of deflection. We introduce several processing routines for automatic masking of the optical flow data and frame-wise information fusion. The method is tested based on data acquired both in numerical simulations and real-life experiments in which cantilever beams were subjected to excitation around their natural frequencies....
At present, the existing algorithm for detecting the parabola of tennis serves neglects the pre-estimation of the global motion information of tennis balls, which leads to great error and low recognition rate. *erefore, a new algorithm for detecting the parabola of tennis service based on video image analysis is proposed. *e global motion information is estimated in advance, and the motion feature of the target is extracted. A tennis appearance model is established by sparse representation, and the data of high-resolution tennis flight appearance model are processed by data fusion technology to track the parabolic trajectory. Based on the analysis of the characteristics of the serve mechanics, according to the nonlinear transformation of the parabolic trajectory state vector, the parabolic trajectory starting point is determined, the parabolic trajectory is obtained, and the detection algorithm of the parabolic service is designed. Experimental results show that compared with the other two algorithms, the algorithm designed in this paper can recognize the trajectory of the parabola at different stages, and the detection accuracy of the parabola is higher in the three-dimensional space of the tennis service....
