Abstract: A method and an image processing system for detecting an object in an image are described. A set of line segments are detected in the image. A subset of the line segments is identified based on a projection space orientation that defines a projection space. Each one of the line segments of the subset of line segments is projected into the projection space to obtain a set of projected line segments, where each projected line segment of the set of projected line segments is represented by a respective set of projection parameters. A determination is performed, in the projection space, based on the sets of projection parameters and a shape criterion that characterizes the object, of whether the image includes an instance of the object. In response to determining that the image includes the instance of the object, the instance of the object is output.

Abstract: The computer motherboard-mounted card such as a dual-head graphics card has two I/O connectors and two footprints positioned one behind the other for accommodating two different output types. A right-angle, vertical edge, I/O connector mounted in a selected one of the two footprints. The I/O connector can be selectively connected to a farther one of the two footprints from a vertical edge of the computer card and be provided with a correspondingly horizontally elongated body.
