Announcement of the winners of the image processing learning software.

Introducing a technology that allows for simultaneous high-speed reading of multiple QR codes and two-dimensional codes in a single shot!

This is a technical appeal from a company specializing in image processing. We introduce a technology that allows for the simultaneous reading of multiple QR codes and two-dimensional codes in a single shot. We have implemented processing that can read two-dimensional codes that are tilted or slanted, achieving high-speed simultaneous reading of multiple codes. Detecting QR codes can be challenging when they are printed in color, as it becomes difficult to distinguish between the QR code and the background color. Additionally, QR codes that are tilted may become distorted in the captured image, making them undetectable. Our unique preprocessing corrects these issues, enabling reading in various environments. If there is no distortion in the details of the QR codes in the captured image, we can read all QR codes within the camera's field of view at once. Even with preprocessing for exploring and correcting the entire image, our system is optimized for PC operation, ensuring high speed and stability for simultaneous reading. Moreover, we can also support other two-dimensional codes, such as DataMatrix, in addition to QR codes. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.*

Using matching and image synthesis techniques, we connect multiple images taken in succession to create a smooth composite image with seamless joins!

This is a technical appeal from a company specializing in image processing. Using matching and image synthesis technology, we stitch together multiple images taken in succession. The result is a smooth composite image where the seams are indistinguishable. To showcase the "stitching (synthesis) performance" of our image stitching system, we intentionally captured images using a poor (highly variable) mechanical system. Each time, the three-dimensional map of the subject shakes significantly, but after capturing and synthesizing the images, we automatically correct for both the "position of the seams" and the "smoothness of the brightness at the seams," making it appear as a single image. This high-quality composite image is obtained quickly, allowing for real-time display during synthesis. There are many application products that utilize the "image stitching" technology. *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.*

Correct the rotation and positional deviation of the input image to always align it in the same position *High-speed and high-precision detection of rotation deviation.

This is a technical appeal from a company specializing in image processing. Tracking is a pattern matching technique that corrects the rotation and positional deviation of the input image, aligning it to the same position consistently. The feature of this demo is its ability to detect rotational deviations quickly and accurately compared to other pattern matching methods. By switching the tracking ON/OFF at regular intervals, it demonstrates how a rotating target comes to a complete stop. The object placed at the center of the image input from a USB camera is the target, and it maintains its position and angle even with movement and rotation. By processing only the logo, it detects rotation and positional deviation, displaying the adjustments by rotating or moving it in the opposite direction, creating the illusion that "the background is rotating" or that "only the logo is being cut out."

We have released a new video on our company’s YouTube channel. The theme of this video is "The World of Amino Acid-Based Shampoos." Amino acid-based shampoos have become popular in recent years, but the lather, feel, and finish can vary greatly depending on the cleansing ingredients used. In this video, we clearly explain the changes in user experience based on the differences in cleansing ingredients by comparing two types of amino acid-based shampoos. We hope you can use this as a hint for developing original shampoos and differentiation.

[To the owners of parking lots and parking lot construction companies] "I’m worried about not colliding with pedestrians when exiting the parking lot..." Among vehicle entrances to parking lots, stores, residences, and factories, those particularly facing sidewalks or roadways are expected to pose risks of dangerous incidents such as collisions with pedestrians or between vehicles. To alleviate such concerns, Hotron proposes a [Vehicle Exit Warning Sensor] that detects vehicle departures using various sensors and alerts the surroundings with LED lights and buzzers. The device consists of a simple configuration of "Sensor" + "Controller" + "Switching Power Supply (24V)" + "LED Rotating Light." *Please note that a separate control panel is required to include the controller and switching power supply (24V) when using the exit warning system. *We kindly ask that customers arrange for the switching power supply (24V), LED rotating light, control panel, circuit breakers, etc. Since it can be retrofitted, it can also be used for existing parking lot entrances. We hope this will contribute to safer vehicle passage for everyone. ◎ For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.

Metal cracks are one of the concerns in equipment maintenance operations. Conventional welding repair methods can alter the base material around the crack due to heat, leading to residual stress and deformation, which always carries the risk of "crack recurrence" and "secondary damage." Hinode Water Supply Equipment Co., Ltd.'s "Mechanical Stitching Method" is a new technique that allows for metal crack repair without applying heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, the crack is physically removed without affecting the base material with heat. Repairs can be made even in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized.
