  • Publication number: 20240135741
    Abstract: A display panel and a display device are provided. A light-controlling component configured to adjust a signal transmitter is disposed on a light-emitting surface of the signal transmitter of the display panel, thereby allowing modulated light, emitted from the signal transmitter disposed at a predetermined included angle with respect to a bottom surface of a cover plate, to be totally reflected between a top surface and the bottom surface of the cover plate. Total reflection is interrupted at a position where a user's finger touches. Light is received and recognized by a plurality of light sensors on a sensor array after entering the display panel, thereby realizing under-display fingerprint recognition in a large area.

  • Patent number: 11593952
    Abstract: A structural vibration monitoring method based on computer vision and motion compensation provided in the present disclosure adopts a dual-camera system for self-motion compensation. The dual-camera system consists of a primary camera and a secondary camera rigidly connected to each other. The primary camera directly measures a structure displacement. This method inevitably includes an error generated due to motion of the primary camera. Meanwhile, the secondary camera measures displacements of translation and rotation, so as to estimate a measurement error caused by the motion of the primary camera. Then, with the displacement directly measured by the main camera minus the measurement error, a corrected structure displacement is obtained, thereby truthfully and accurately monitoring vibrations of a bridge structure.

  • Patent number: 11519724
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for monitoring ground settlement based on computer vision. Before monitoring starts, the first image frame is captured. For one measuring point, the area of the top LED lamp is defined as a tracking template, its pixel center is the reference point for settlement calculation, and a monitoring area is defined by an estimated range. After monitoring starts, the best matched of the lamp template is searched for in the monitoring area of a second image frame. When the best matched area is obtained, its pixel center is obtained as the new lamp position, and it is selected as the new template; the pixel displacement between two adjacent image frames can be obtained by comparison. The total pixel displacement of multiple points during the monitoring period is calculated through the accumulated displacement, and the actual settlement is calculated through a pixel-physical ratio.

The video image detection acquires images of many areas where human beings are difficult to reach; computers are adopted to identify cracks on surfaces of the structural elements, which can greatly reduce the identification workload and labor cost, and increase the crack detection rate. The invention has a better adaptability to the light strength on the structural surface, thus providing better identification for cracks.
