For the pose measurement of cannon barrel, a vision method through checked plane had been proposed. To test and improve the precision of this new method without considering the hardware error and some other inextricable objective factors,derive the imaging model of the marker (checked plane) from motion model of cannon barrel and the position relative to it using variable-controlling method. Establish the computer simulation platform of vision measurement system for cannon barrel pose based on C++ Builder. The simulation experiment validate the veracity and dependability of this method.

Railway infrastructure must meet safety requirements concerning its construction and operation. Track geometry monitoring is one of the most important activities in maintaining the steady technical conditions of rail infrastructure. Commonly, it is performed using complex measurement equipment installed on track-recording coaches. Existing low-cost inertial sensor-based measurement systems provide reliable measurements of track geometry in vertical directions. However, solutions are needed for track geometry parameter measurement in the lateral direction. In this research, the authors developed a visual measurement system for track gauge evaluation. It involves the detection of measurement points and the visual measurement of the distance between them. The accuracy of the visual measurement system was evaluated in the laboratory and showed promising results. The initial field test was performed in the Vilnius railway station yard, driving at low velocity on the straight track section. The results show that the image point selection method developed for selecting the wheel and rail points to measure distance is stable enough for TG measurement. Recommendations for the further improvement of the developed system are presented.

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to develop a monocular visual measurement system for autonomous aerial refueling (AAR) for unmanned aerial vehicle, which can process images from an infrared camera to estimate the pose of the drogue in the tanker with high accuracy and real-time performance.Design/methodology/approachMethods and techniques for marker detection, feature matching and pose estimation have been designed and implemented in the visual measurement system.FindingsThe simple blob detection (SBD) method is adopted, which outperforms the Laplacian of Gaussian method. And a novel noise-elimination algorithm is proposed for excluding the noise points. Besides, a novel feature matching algorithm based on perspective transformation is proposed. Comparative experimental results indicated the rapidity and effectiveness of the proposed methods.Practical implicationsThe visual measurement system developed in this paper can be applied to estimate the pose of the drogue with a fast speed and high accuracy and it is a feasible measurement strategy which will considerably increase the autonomy and reliability for AAR.Originality/valueThe SBD method is used to detect the features and a novel noise-elimination algorithm is proposed. Besides, a novel feature matching algorithm based on perspective transformation is proposed which is robust and accurate.

A monocular vision measurement system was proposed based on the underwater robot, which used a single camera as visual sensor and used inertial navigation system to measure position and attitude. In this paper, the processing of underwater target images and the parameter calibration algorithm for visual measurement system were discussed, and then the visual measurement mathematic model of underwater robot was derived using the pose information of the inertial navigation system. Vision measuring principle validation tests for underwater robot have been carried out to detect underwater targets. The experiments verify that the monocular vision measurement algorithm proposed for underwater robot is effective with a preferably accuracy.
