  • Patent number: 9207676
    Abstract: A system for guiding an automated guided vehicle (AGV) is provided. The system includes a guidance path, an AGV, an image capturing apparatus and an operation unit. The guidance path guides the AGV. The AGV moves on the guidance path and is guided by the guidance path. The AGV moves in a vision guidance region after departing from the guidance path. The image capturing apparatus captures a vision guidance region associated image. The vision guidance region associated image at least includes an image of the vision guidance region. The operation unit determines whether the AGV departs from the guidance path, and calculates position information of the AGV in the vision guidance region. When the AGV departs from the guidance path, the operation unit guides the AGV according to the vision guidance region associated image.

  • Patent number: 8971583
    Abstract: A distance measurement apparatus and a distance measurement method are provided. The apparatus includes a line-shaped laser transmitter, an image sensing device and a processing unit. The line-shaped laser transmitter transmits a line-shaped laser, and the image sensing device senses the line-shaped laser to output a line-shaped laser image. The processing unit receives the line-shaped laser image, and segments the line-shaped laser image into several sub-line-shaped laser images. The processing unit further calculates a vertical position for a laser line in each sub-line-shaped laser image, and outputs each distance information according to the corresponding sub-line-shaped laser image and a transformation relation.

  • Publication number: 20140098218
    Abstract: A moving control device is provided, including a filtering element, an image capturing unit, a calculating unit, and a light-emitting element that emits a structured light with a predetermined wavelength. The filtering element allows the structured light to pass therethrough while filtering out without the predetermined wavelength. The filtering element is provided in a portion at a front end of the image capturing unit, such that an external image retrieved by the image capturing unit includes a first region generated as a result of the light intersecting the filtering element and a second region generated as a result of the light not intersecting the filtering element. The calculating unit performs image recognition on the first and second regions of the external image to generate identification results to allow controlling movement of an autonomous mobile platform based on the identification results.
