Handheld dimensioning system with measurement-conformance feedback
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for generating a confidence level for a dimension measurement, comprising:
- capturing, using an image sensor, an image of an object in a field of view;
calculating, using the captured image, at least one first dimension of the object from a first edge of the object to a second edge of the object;
calculating, using the captured image, at least one second dimension of the object from one pixel on a first side of the first edge of the object to the second edge;
calculating a difference between the at least one first dimension and the at least one second dimension; and
generating the confidence level based on the difference in the at least one first dimension and the at least one second dimension of the object.

Abstract
A system and method for obtaining a dimension measurement that conforms to a conformance criteria is disclosed. The dimensioning system provides either (i) feedback to confirm that the measurement complies with the criteria or (ii) information on how the measurement geometry could be adjusted in order to provide a compliant measurement in a subsequent dimension measurement.

17. A method for generating a confidence level for a dimension measurement of an object, comprising:
-
capturing, with an imaging system, an image of the object in a field-of-view; calculating, from the captured image, at least one first dimension of the object from a first edge of the object to a second edge of the object; calculating, from the captured image, at least one second dimension of the object from one pixel on a first side of the first edge of the object to the second edge; and calculating a difference between the at least one first dimension and the at least one second dimension, wherein the smaller the difference between the at least one first dimension and the at least one second dimension, the higher the confidence level in the dimension measurement. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
