Automated extraction of laser streaks and range profiles
Project short description
The aim of this project is to develop an algorithm to extract laser traces produced on various surfaces by a laser scanner from images taken by a camera without IR filter

Laboratory work and risk analysis
Laboratory work for this project will be mainly performed at AIRLab/Lambrate. It will include significant amounts of mechanical work as well as of electrical and electronic activity. Potentially risky activities are the following:
- Use of Lasers. Standard safety measures described in Safety norms will be followed.
Part 2: project description
Tasks
- Shoot two images with the camera and laser scanner fixed, one with the scanner on and one with the scanner off. Experiment different lighting conditions and camera settings.
- Try subtracting the two images; the trace should be barely visible.
- Equalize and smooth the resulting image
- Return the trace as a set of rectilinear and curvilinear segments.
