Abstract
A method for photogrammetric measurement includes capturing a sequence of images of an infant lying in a crib and processing the images so as to extract a skeleton of the infant from one or more of the images. A height of the infant is estimated based on the extracted skeleton.
Claims15
A method for photogrammetric measurement, comprising:
- capturing a sequence of images of an infant lying in a crib, wherein the crib is covered by a bedsheet having a pattern printed thereon;
- processing the images so as to extract a skeleton of the infant from one or more of the images and to identify the pattern in the images;
- and
- estimating a height of the infant based on the extracted skeleton by computing an image transformation based on the identified pattern and applying the image transformation in estimating the height of the infant.
A computer software product, comprising a non-transitory computer-readable medium in which program instructions are stored, which instructions, when read by a computer, cause the computer to capture a sequence of images of an infant lying in a crib, which is covered by a bedsheet having a pattern printed thereon, to process the images so as to extract a skeleton of the infant from one or more of the images and to identify the pattern in the images, to compute an image transformation based on the identified pattern, and to apply the image transformation in estimating a height of the infant based on the extracted skeleton.
A system for photogrammetric measurement, comprising:
- a camera configured to capture a sequence of images of an infant lying in a crib, which is covered by a bedsheet having a pattern printed thereon;
- and
- a processor, which is configured to process the images so as to extract a skeleton of the infant from one or more of the images and to identify the pattern in the images, to compute an image transformation based on the identified pattern, and to apply the image transformation in estimating a height of the infant based on the extracted skeleton.
