- the invention proposes an equipment in which there is an arrangement of infrared cameras and projectors, this set being operated by software.
- Another objective of the invention is to perform the operation in an automated, economical way and without the influence of operators, minimizing measurement errors.
- Another objective of the invention is the static acquisition of information, with considerable reduction of the associated uncertainties, allowing to obtain data with greater accuracy and improving the repeatability and reproducibility of the process in any environment.
- Another objective of the invention is to obtain redundancy in data acquisition, enabling the use of statistical models and error calculation for each measurement.

- FIG. 2 illustrates a profile view of the device used to measure trauma in a ballistic vest and its positioning during the ballistic vest test
- Figures 7a, 7b and 7c represent, respectively, the deformed surface, the point cloud obtained by the 3D reconstruction software and a profile view of the point cloud.
- FIG. 8 presents a diagram of the software responsible for performing the coordinated acquisition of images, managing cameras and projectors, performing the 3D reconstruction based on the acquired images, establish reference planes in point clouds, automatically segment trauma regions, calculate trauma depths and perform statistical treatment of the data.
- the present invention refers to a set of equipment and techniques used to digitize the deformed surface of plasticine, which constitutes the support material for ballistic vest tests.
- the main objective of the device is to allow scanning quickly, economically and reliably, ensuring repeatability and speed in the test process of ballistic vests.
- the operation of the equipment is based on 3D reconstruction through stereo images, in which a pair of images of a given object is able to provide three-dimensional coordinates of the points of this object.
- This data can be converted into a point cloud that represents the real model.
- Figure 1 illustrates the configuration used for testing ballistic vests by NIJ 01.01.04 and NIJ 01.01.06 standards.
- a firing system (10) composed of a stand, specimen receiver and specimen whose objective is to fire a certain caliber and type of ammunition, which can be changed as required for the test; ballistic barriers (20) composed of two chronograph systems to measure the projectile's velocity; plasticine box (30) which, in addition to having the support material for the test known as plasticine, also contains the ballistic vest to be tested.
- Figure 2 details the positioning of the projection and image capture device (40) in the configuration used in the test standardized by the NIJ standards, where said device is positioned, by means of its own support or secured by means of adapters, right after the ballistic barriers (20).
- Figures 3 and 4 An aspect of the system proposed by the invention is shown in Figures 3 and 4.
- the arrangement and assembly of the set of cameras (50) in the image projection and capture device (40), observed in Figure 3, allows easy handling and and the virtually simultaneous acquisition of several pairs of images.
- Figure 3 illustrates a set of projectors (60), with at least four infrared projectors that have different patterns among themselves, embedded separately in each edge of the projection and image capture device (40).
- the set of cameras (50) has at least two pairs of cameras, each camera located in a corner of the projection and image capture device (40) and with bases coupled to devices that allow adjustable angular inclination with the edges adjacent to the image capture and projection device (40), which maximizes the distance between said cameras and enables better framing of the images.
- the sets of cameras (50) and projectors (60) are controlled by software (90), which allows switching between pairs of cameras and infrared standards, in order to obtain a large number of pairs of images for further processing and conversion. in point cloud.

- Figure 4 shows a plasticine box (30) with a deformed surface, which is the object of the digitization.
- the existence of calibration plates (70) around the box allows quick calibration of the camera system already with the configuration set up for the test, without the need for operator intervention.
- the calibration plates have known distances between each marking, it is possible to estimate the correct distances for subsequent scans using software (100).
- the calibration plates (70) are installed on the front of the plasticine box and also on the back, lagged in the distance relative to the thickness of the box. This provision aims at the correct estimation of intermediate values for the creation of the point cloud.
- the calibration plates (70) must present checkered printed patterns, where Figure 5 illustrates a possible appearance for the patterns printed on said calibration plate (70).
- the calibration process consists of relating the image pixels to the real distances of the object.
- the capture of images from the calibration plates allows the relationship between image pixels and the real distances of the object, as established by the Zhang Method for calibration using a checkered board.
- the Zhang method is a method that presents an easy-to-apply and low-cost setup, which only requires the camera to observe a planar pattern with different (at least two) orientations/positions, both of which can move up freely.
- the proposed method consists of seeking an analytical solution that allows an initial approximation of the intrinsic/extrinsic parameters of the camera, followed by a non-linear refinement based on the maximum likelihood criterion. The radial distortion of the lens is included in the model, given the analytical and non-linear solutions.
- Figure 6 represents the system after the shots of the projectiles of the set and the removal of the ballistic vest, leaving the trauma (80) exposed for digitalization.
- the process of calibration of the cameras of the set of cameras (50) is carried out, in order to obtain parameters to calculate the positioning of each point on the surface of the plasticine, by means of software (100). Calibration is performed once for each pair of cameras, totaling at least six calibrations, and the results are compared for error checking.
- the capture of images begins, selecting an infrared projector from the projection set (40) and performing the simultaneous capture of successive pairs of cameras, totaling at least six pairs of images.
- the image capture procedure is repeated with the other infrared projectors of the projection set (40) to generate another eighteen pairs of images, totaling 24 pairs.
- Figures 7a, 7b and 7c illustrate the deformed surface, the cloud of points obtained by digitizing the deformed surface and the digitization seen in profile, respectively, and in Figure 7c it is possible to visualize the depth of the trauma.
- the measurement process begins in each of these point clouds, through algorithms for establishing reference planes, such as the Random Sample Consensus (RANSAC).
- RANSAC Random Sample Consensus
- a large amount of information for trauma measurement is obtained, allowing errors and uncertainties to be calculated (110).
- the identification and automatic segmentation of trauma regions can be performed manually or through the use of Machine learning algorithms and Neural Networks.
- measurements can be made before and after each shot, allowing the comparison of clouds and quantifying the deformation that occurred, in this case the process of alignment between clouds becomes necessary, which can be done by the use of the Iterative Closest Point (ICP) algorithm.
- ICP Iterative Closest Point
- the invention is not limited to the described aspect, being obvious to any technician in the subject the adaptation to the use of more pairs of cameras and the use of more infrared projectors, with different patterns among themselves, to obtain more clouds of light. points on the plasticine surface and subsequent 3D reconstruction of said surface.
