Abstract
In order to improve the accuracy in the On-line measurement of rail profile
with a line structured light based on machine vision, the accurate extraction
of a structured light stripe is a necessary and key step. An accurate extraction
method is proposed for the structural light stripe in practical applications.
The structured light stripe is separated and extracted accurately based
on the geometric characteristics of the structure light stripe in the binary
image. And the noise in the captured image is removed with region segmentation
method. The above method was tested in laboratory conditions. Experiment
results show that the developed method can effectively solve the problem
of the accurate extraction of structured light stripe in real time.
