Abstract:
We describe a new method for computing dimensions of boxes from single perspective projection images in real time. We demonstrate the proposed approach by building a scanner and using it to compute dimensions of real boxes. This can be a useful tool for companies that handle boxes in their day-by-day operations, such as carriers, airline companies, and warehouses. It solves a specific problem: how measure a box that is traveling along a conveyor belt, a situation in which you cannot touch the box physically.
