In this paper, a study on detectability and readability of barcodes using omnidirectional vision system for automated guided vehicle is presented. Images from omnidirectional camera are known to be distorted against the height of the object. We present an algorithm for detecting and reading barcodes successfully without correcting the image distortion. Experiments were conducted both when the AGV was in motion and at rest. Three contributing factors were identified for successful barcodes detection and reading.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
