REAL TIME HIGH SPEED VISION AND ITS APPLICATIONS
Most of the conventional robot vision technologies involving video signals (PAL: 25 fps; NTSC 30 fps) are designed based on the characteristics of the human eye. Similarly, the processing speed is limited to the same or a lower level as compared to the human eye. In various application fields, there is a growing demand for image processing technology, which facilitates the real-time recognition of high-speed phenomena that cannot be recognized by the human eye. In this presentation, we introduce a high-speed robot vision system as one of hyper human technologies for real-time video processing and recording at a high-speed frame rate such as 1000 fps. The core technology of the ultrafast robot vision technology initiative is introduced together with the applications of this system in the fields of robotics, multimedia, biomedicine, etc.
Qingyi Gu received the B.E. degree in Electronic and Information Engineering from Xi’an Jiaotong University, China, in 2005. He received the M.E. degree, and Ph.D. degree in Engineering, from Hiroshima University, Japan, in 2010, and 2013 respectively. In April 2013, he joined Hiroshima University as an Assistant Professor. In May 2015, he was promoted as an Associate Professor. In April 2016, he was moved to Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences (CASIA) as a Professor. His research involves real-time high-speed vision and its applications in fast multi-object recognition and tracking, as well as fast flowing cell analysis in a microchannel under the microscope.
