A Rectangle Detection Method for Real-Time Extraction of Large Panel Edge
Zhe Bao Wu, Qing‐Jie Kong, Jiapeng Liu, Yuncai Liu · 2011
The problem of real-time rectangle detection on high-resolution image arises in actual panel production. This paper proposes a robust real-time method for panel rectangle detection. In line extraction part, a new technique called "Crossing Dilation" is proposed to improve the Progressive Probabilistic Hough Transform performance, to extract long line segments that are not perfectly straight in large sparse binary image. The rectangle is detected using the proposed rectangle fitting method. Experiments on a variety of real cases of large panels are executed, some of which are badly disturbed by the fake edges caused by the dust in the background region. The results show great real-time performance on all the cases, and the proposed method is robust to the disturbances and different panel sizes.
