Abstract
In this paper, we propose a stereo image recognition-based method for measuring the volume of the rectangular parallelepiped. The method measures the volume from two images captured with two CCD (charge coupled device) cameras by sequential processes such as ROI (region of interest) extraction, feature extraction, and stereo matching-based vortex recognition. The proposed method makes it possible to measure the volume of the 3D object at high speed because only a few features are used in the process of stereo matching. From experimental results, it is demonstrated that this method is very effective for measuring the volume of the rectangular parallelepiped at high speed.
