[Image Processing] A camera is mounted in the driver's seat. Autonomous driving using only camera footage.
An easy-to-understand demo of image processing technology. Automatic driving of N-gauge trains using only the camera footage from the driver's seat.
This is a technical appeal from a company that develops image processing. "We created a demonstration for an exhibition to show how much we can assist with what the 'human eye' does. We mounted a small camera in the driver's seat of a small N-gauge train. The camera is a pinhole camera, and the images are wireless, so the quality is very poor. We challenged ourselves to see 'how far we can go' under these unfavorable conditions. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.*

basic information
Two trains, each equipped with a camera, operate on a single track. Only at the station is there a switch, and when one train arrives at the station (knowing it is at the station because its home signal is red), it automatically stops. Once it stops, the switch changes, and the train that is stopped on the opposite platform starts moving. There are also signals along the track, and when the camera detects a yellow signal, it operates at a reduced speed. This process is repeated. If the goal is automatic operation of N-gauge trains, the same thing can be reliably accomplished with a microcontroller sequencer. This demo aims to explore "how far can we go with camera images?" and assumes "assistance" in cases where a human is driving. If you can understand that such fun things can be realized through "image processing," then the goal is achieved. When customers want to realize something, they might casually think, "Let's consult that N-gauge demo company (Apollo Seiko, Shin-Yokohama Office)." *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.*

Due to our focus on image processing, we have a wide range of applications, including "medical devices," "image processing for automobiles," "inspection equipment," and "wide dynamic range cameras," among others. We have prepared many implementation methods, so if you specify the image processing functions you would like to add to your products, we will consider the specifications, schedule, and costs, and create a "proposal." For image processing software development, we provide implementation methods using algorithms for "learning," "recognition," "search," "image synthesis," "defect repair," etc., as well as device drivers for PCIe and ARM firmware. In hardware development, we have 27 years of experience with image processing boards using SoC FPGAs from Intel (Altera) and AMD (Xilinx), as well as FFT, labeling IP, image transformation, and more.
