摘要:
A camera may be positioned to have a direct view of on-coming vehicle traffic from a first perspective. Additionally, a reflective surface, such as a mirror, may be positioned within the viewing area of the same camera to provide the camera with a reflected view of vehicle traffic from a second perspective. The images recorded by the camera may then be received by a computing device. The computing device may separate the images into a direct view region and a reflected view region. After separation, the regions may be analyzed independently and/or combined with other regions, and the analyzed data may be stored. The regions may be analyzed to determine various vehicle characteristics, including, but not limited to, vehicle speed, license plate identification, vehicle occupancy, vehicle count, and vehicle type.

Disclosed are methods and systems for creating a printer model which maps device dependent color space representations of reference colors to device independent color space representations of the reference colors for a direct marking color printer. According to an exemplary method, a plurality of printer models are initially generated, each printer model corresponding to a predetermined width associated with the cross-process direction of an image receiving surface.

This disclosure provides a video camera and video processing alert system for detecting a vehicle in reverse. According to one exemplary embodiment, the system operates according to the following guidelines or steps: (1) Acquire video containing features relevant to reverse detection, (2) Identify feature(s) within the video frame that are relevant to a vehicle in reverse, (3) Examine identified features to extract the evidence of vehicle backing up for a current frame, (4) Apply temporal filtering on the frame-to-frame evidence, (5) Use filtered evidence for decision on triggering the alarm, (6) Triggering an alarm if indicated by the decision. The system can be implemented with relative low cost and complexity, due to the affordability of video cameras, and the fact that many drive-through locations have existing video capture infrastructure.

Methods and systems for discriminating between tires. One or more images of an unknown tire are received. One or more tread features are extracted from the images. The class of the unknown tire is determined using a classifier that matches the tread features to known tread features.

摘要:
An improved method and apparatus is provided for cleaning an ink jet printhead following a print operation. A source of pressure is applied to the printhead nozzle face via a resilient sealing cap member. The printhead manifold is connected to a reservoir which is filled with cleaning fluid. The cleaning fluid is introduced into the printhead interior. The pressure source is activated for short time periods and at a low pressure forces air into the interior of the printhead. This creates an agitation of the cleaning mixture and a bubbling effect which causes residual ink within the printhead to be mixed with the cleaning fluid and carried through the ink manifold back into the ink tank. The operation can be repeated until all of the residual ink is purged from the printhead interior.
