Abstract

UN SISTEMA PARA LA DETECCION DE LAS MARCAS FIDUCIARIAS (10) SE PUEDE USAR CON UN LECTOR PARA EL RECONOCIMIENTO DE LOS CARACTERES OPTICOS (OCR) SOBRE LA CINTA, PARA AVERIGUAR LA POSICION Y LA ORIENTACION DEL TEXTO (60) DE LA DIRECCION DE DESTINO DE UN PAQUETE (30) QUE SE MUEVE POR UNA CINTA TRANSPORTADORA (20). EL SISTEMA PARA LA DETECCION DE LAS MARCAS FIDUCIARIAS (10) INCLUYE UN SISTEMA (60) DE DISPOSITIVOS ACOPLADOS POR CARGA (CCD), UN CONVERSOR DE ANALOGICO A DIGITAL (A/D) (70), UN ORDENADOR DE PROPOSITO GENERAL (80), Y UN PROGRAMA DE SOFTWARE (100). EL PROGRAMA SOFTWARE PARA EL PROCESADO DE LAS IMAGENES (100) INCLUYE LOS HISTOGRAMAS DE PROYECCION, EL FILTRADO DE CONVOLUCION, LA CORRELACION, LA VARIANZA RADIAL, LOS PRIMEROS MOMENTOS DE INERCIA, EL ANALISIS DEL CONTORNO DE LAS IMAGENES, EL METODO HOUGH, Y UN CHEQUEO DE LA CERTEZA DE LA DETECCION. UNA MARCA DEFINIDORA DE LA ORIENTACION (50) QUE INCLUYE TINTA FLUORESCENTE, SE COLOCA, APROXIMADAMENTE, EN EL CENTRO DEL BLOQUE CON LA DIRECCIONDE DESTINO, SOBRE UN PAQUETE (30). LA MARCA DEFINIDORA DE LA ORIENTACION (50) NO OBSTRUYE EL TEXTO SUBYACENTE (60) Y SE PUEDE ESTAMPAR EN EL PAQUETE (30) EN CUALQUIER MOMENTO ANTES DE LA EXPLORACION. LA MARCA FIDUCIARIA SE COMPONE DE DOS CIRCULOS, (110) Y (120), CON DIAMETROS DIFERENTES Y ORIENTADOS DE FORMA TAL QUE, UN VECTOR (150) DESDE EL CENTRO (130) DEL CIRCULO GRANDE (110) AL CENTRO (140) DEL CIRCULO PEQUEÑO (120) SE ORIENTA EN LA MISMA DIRECCION QUE EL TEXTO SUBYACENTE (60).
