Abstract:
An individual identification apparatus that identifies an individual product having a pattern of irregularities randomly formed on a surface thereof includes an imaging unit and an extracting unit. The imaging unit is configured to acquire an image obtained by capturing a date mark formed on the product. The extracting unit is configured to extract a feature value related to the pattern of the irregularities from the image as data identifying the individual product.
Abstract:
An image matching device includes a weight determination unit and a matching unit. Based on a synthesized frequency characteristic obtained by synthesizing a frequency characteristic of a first image with a frequency characteristic of a second image and an ideal synthesized frequency characteristic that is an ideal one obtained by synthesizing the frequency characteristic of the first image with the frequency characteristic of the second image, the weight determination unit determines a weight relating to frequency in performing matching of the first image and a third image. The matching unit performs matching of the first image and the third image based on the determined weight.
Abstract:
A sound recording device includes at least one memory configured to store instructions; and at least one processor configured to execute the instructions to: record a voice; capture an image being an index for indexing the recorded voice; and assign the captured image to the recorded voice as an index during recording.
Abstract:
An object management system includes an identifier generation device and an object collation device. The identifier generation device includes a generation unit that forms an ink layer on a target object, an imaging unit that images an uneven pattern on a surface of the ink layer, and a registration unit that registers the imaged result in a storage unit. The object collation device includes an imaging unit that images the uneven pattern on the surface of the ink layer formed on the target object, and a recognizing unit that recognizes the target object based on an image of the uneven pattern obtained by imaging.
Abstract:
An individual identifying device includes a generation unit and an imaging unit. The generation unit generates a pattern on an object. The imaging unit acquires an image of the pattern after the pattern is stabilized, in conjunction with generation of the pattern by the generation unit.
Abstract:
An individual identifier extraction device includes: an imaging part configured to obtain an image by imaging a label which is attached to an object and includes a random pattern and an alignment reference portion; and an extraction part configured to acquire, from the image obtained by imaging, an image of an area determined with reference to the alignment reference portion on the label, and extract a feature quantity of the random pattern as an individual identifier of the object from the image of the area.
Abstract:
The present invention is an identification method comprising: with at least a part of a skeleton part of an identification mark attached to a component or a product defined as a matching area, identifying the component, product, or product having the component as one of its constituent elements using a textured pattern formed in the matching area.
