Multi-Resolution Label Locator

View page
US Patent:
6728391, Apr 27, 2004
Filed:
Dec 3, 1999
Appl. No.:
09/454090
Inventors:
Jianxin Wu - Mahwah NJ
Gregory P. Skinger - Southbury CT
Jason Wang - New City NY
James Recktenwalt - Mahwah NJ
Assignee:
United Parcel Service of America, Inc. - Atlanta GA
International Classification:
G06K 900
US Classification:
382101, 382173, 382306, 209583, 209900
Abstract:
A multi-resolution label locator system divides an input image into a plurality of multi-pixel cells. The multi-resolution label locator system then creates a decimated image or low resolution image corresponding to the input image. The decimated image includes a common-characteristic value that corresponds to a multi-pixel cell of the input image. The multi-resolution label locator system identifies one or more areas within the decimated image that have characteristics corresponding to the characteristics of interest. While generating the decimated image, the multi-resolution label locator system simultaneously creates an edge-occurrence image that corresponds to the input image. The edge-occurrence image includes an edge value that corresponds to each cell of the input image. Each edge value represents the number of occurrences of an edge within the pixels of a corresponding cell of the input image. The multi-resolution label locator system identifies one or more candidate areas within the input image that have decimated-image characteristics and edge-occurrence image characteristics corresponding to the characteristics of interest.

Method For Locating The Position And Orientation Of A Fiduciary Mark

View page
US Patent:
56424426, Jun 24, 1997
Filed:
Nov 8, 1995
Appl. No.:
8/554321
Inventors:
James S. Morton - Atlanta GA
James V. Recktenwalt - New Milford CT
Johannes A. S. Bjorner - Woodbury CT
Kenneth A. Lais - New Fairfield CT
Assignee:
United Parcel Services of America, Inc. - Atlanta GA
International Classification:
G06K 920
US Classification:
382287
Abstract:
Fiduciary mark detection system usable with an over-the-belt optical character recognition (OCR) reader for ascertaining the position and orientation of text within the destination address on parcels moving along a conveyor, comprising charged coupled device (CCD) array, analog-to-digital (A/D) converter, general purpose computer, and software program. Image processing software program comprising projection histograms, convolution filtering, correlation, radial variance, first moments of inertia, edge image analysis, Hough method, detection confidence testing. Orientation defining mark comprising fluorescent ink placed approximately in the center of the destination address block on a parcel is non obstructive of the underlying text and may be affixed to parcel any time prior to scanning. Fiduciary mark comprising two circles of different diameter oriented such that a vector from the center of large circle to center of small circle is oriented in the same direction as underlying text.

Two Camera System For Locating And Storing Indicia On Conveyed Items

US Patent:
62367358, May 22, 2001
Filed:
Nov 7, 1997
Appl. No.:
8/967287
Inventors:
Johannes A. S. Bjorner - Woodbury CT
Kenneth Alan Lais - New Fairfield CT
James S. Morton - Atlanta GA
James V. Recktenwalt - New Milford CT
Assignee:
United Parcel Service of America, Inc. - Atlanta GA
International Classification:
G06K 900
US Classification:
382101
Abstract:
A two camera over-the-belt optical character recognition (OCR) system for reading the destination addresses on parcels carried on a conveyor belt. The parcels bear an orientation defining fluorescent ink fiduciary mark that is typically stamped on the parcel in the same area as the destination address. The fiduciary mark is located approximately in the center of the destination address block and oriented in the same direction as the underlying destination address. The first camera, a low resolution CCD camera, captures an image of the fiduciary mark. A host computer stores an image of the fiduciary mark, determines the position and orientation of the fiduciary mark, and defines a region of interest about the fiduciary mark. The second camera, a high resolution CCD camera, captures a grey-scale image of the conveyor and the parcels carried on the conveyor. The host computer extracts and stores the portion of the high resolution image that is within the region of interest including the text defining the destination address of the parcel.
