International Classification:
G06K 9/00
US Classification:
382131, 382154
Abstract:
A method of determining a geometric parameter of a machine includes using the machine to obtain an image of at least a portion of a structure, the structure having a plurality of markers, wherein the markers have predetermined position(s) relative to each other, determining a position of the structure based on a pattern of the markers in the image, and determining a geometric parameter of the machine based at least in part on the determined position of the structure.

US Patent:
8396248, Mar 12, 2013
Filed:
Sep 16, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/211686
Inventors:
Hassan Mostafavi - Los Altos CA, US
Alexander Sloutsky - Burlingame CA, US
Assignee:
Varian Medical Systems, Inc. - Palo Alto CA
International Classification:
G06K 9/00
US Classification:
382103, 382106
Abstract:
A method for determining a position of a target includes obtaining a first image of the target, obtaining a second image of the target, wherein the first and the second images have different image planes and are generated at different times, processing the first and second images to determine whether the target in the first image corresponds spatially with the target in the second image, and determining the position of the target based on a result of the act of processing. Systems and computer products for performing the method are also described.

US Patent:
20080095416, Apr 24, 2008
Filed:
Oct 18, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/582227
Inventors:
Andrew G. Jeung - Mountain View CA, US
Hassan Mostafavi - Los Altos CA, US
Alexander Sloutsky - Burlingame CA, US
Sergey Povzner - Burlingame CA, US
International Classification:
G06K 9/00
US Classification:
382128, 382154
Abstract:
A marker system includes a marker, and a positioner coupled to the marker, the positioner configured to position the marker from a first predetermined position to a second predetermined position. A method of providing a marker system includes obtaining a first data representative of a first predetermined position, obtaining a second data representative of a second predetermined position, and moving a set of one or more markers from the first predetermined position to the second predetermined position, wherein the set of one or more markers is moved using a positioner. A method of using a marker system includes detecting a marker when the marker is located at a first position, moving the marker from the first position to a second position using a positioner, and detecting the marker when the marker is located at the second position.

Template Matching Method For Image-Based Detection And Tracking Of Irregular Shaped Targets

View page
US Patent:
20220301280, Sep 22, 2022
Filed:
Jun 10, 2022
Appl. No.:
17/838067
Inventors:
- Palo Alto CA, US
Alexander SLOUTSKY - San Mateo CA, US
Andrew G. JEUNG - Mountain View CA, US
International Classification:
G06V 10/75
G06T 7/00
G06T 7/246
Abstract:
A method of generating a template image includes: receiving an input from a user representing identifications of an object in different respective slices of a volumetric image; using the input to determine a volume-of-interest (VOI) that includes voxels in a subset of the volumetric image; and determining the template image using at least some of the voxels in the VOI, wherein the act of determining the template image comprises performing a forward projection of the at least some of the voxels in the VOI using a processor. An image processing method includes: obtaining a volumetric image; performing forward projection of voxels in the volumetric image from different positions onto a first plane using a processor; and summing projections on the first plane resulted from the forward projection from the different positions to create a first image slice in the first plane.
