  • Patent number: 11935189
    Abstract: A method for generating a photogrammetric corridor map from a set of input images by recovering a respective pose of each image, wherein a pose includes a position and an orientation information of the underlying camera, including steps of: a) receiving a set of input images, b) defining a working set, c) initializing an image cluster, d) further growing the image cluster: d1) selecting one image from the working set that features overlap with at least one image already in the cluster, e) continuing with step b) if there remain images in the working set; if not, f) generating and providing as output the corridor map using the recovered camera poses.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 11017228
    Abstract: A method for condition monitoring of an installation with operating devices, in which overview data is detected by a first vehicle with an overview sensor arrangement for optical detection of the facility, and the operating devices are identified in the overview data by an evaluation device and the positions of the operating devices are determined taking into account the position of the first vehicle. Detail shots of the operating devices are produced by a detail camera on-board a second or the first vehicle, which is oriented in relation to the respective positions of the operating devices. There is a corresponding arrangement for carrying out the method. A mode of embodiment relates to the condition monitoring of high-voltage masts with high-voltage free lines that are clamped between the masts. Insulators hang on the transverse members as operating devices.
