In recent years, the pose estimation of objects has become a research hotspot. This technique can effectively estimate the pose changes of objects in space and is widely used in many mobile devices, such as AR/VR. At present, mainstream technologies can achieve high-precision pose estimation, but the problem of that of multiple irregular objects in mobile and embedded devices under limited resource conditions is still challenging. In this paper, we propose a FastQR algorithm that can estimate the pose of multiple irregular objects on Renesas by utilizing homography method to solve the transformation matrix of a single QR code and then establish the spatial constraint relationship between multiple QR codes to estimate the posture of irregular objects. Our algorithm obtained a competitive result in simulation and verification on the RZ/A2M development board of Renesas. Moreover, the verification results show that our method can estimate the spatial pose of the multiobject accurately and robustly in distributed embedded devices. The average frame rate calculated on the RZ/A2M can reach 28 fps, which is at least 37 times faster than that of other pose estimation methods.

Monocular vision is one of the most commonly used noncontact six-degrees-of-freedom (6-DOF) pose estimation methods. However, the large translational DOF measurement error along the optical axis of the camera is one of its main weaknesses, which greatly limits the measurement accuracy of monocular vision measurement. In this paper, we propose a novel monocular camera and 1D laser rangefinder (LRF) fusion strategy to overcome this weakness and design a remote and ultra-high precision cooperative targets 6-DOF pose estimation sensor. Our approach consists of two modules: (1) a feature fusion module that precisely fuses the initial pose estimated from the camera and the depth information obtained by the LRF. (2) An optimization module that optimizes pose and system parameters. The performance of our proposed 6-DOF pose estimation method is validated using simulations and real-world experiments. The experimental results show that our fusion strategy can accurately integrate the information of the camera and the LRF. Further optimization carried out on this basis effectively reduces the measurement error of monocular vision 6-DOF pose measurement. The experimental results obtained from a prototype show that its translational and rotational DOF measurement accuracy can reach up to 0.02 mm and 15″, respectively, at a distance of 10 m.

In this survey we present a complete landscape of joint object detection and pose estimation methods that use monocular vision. Descriptions of traditional approaches that involve descriptors or models and various estimation methods have been provided. These descriptors or models include chordiograms, shape-aware deformable parts model, bag of boundaries, distance transform templates, natural 3D markers and facet features whereas the estimation methods include iterative clustering estimation, probabilistic networks and iterative genetic matching. Hybrid approaches that use handcrafted feature extraction followed by estimation by deep learning methods have been outlined. We have investigated and compared, wherever possible, pure deep learning based approaches (single stage and multi stage) for this problem. Comprehensive details of the various accuracy measures and metrics have been illustrated. For the purpose of giving a clear overview, the characteristics of relevant datasets are discussed. The trends that prevailed from the infancy of this problem until now have also been highlighted.

Quick response (QR) codes are usually scanned in different environments, so they must be robust to variations in illumination, scale, coverage, and camera angles. Aesthetic QR codes improve the visual quality, but subtle changes in their appearance may cause scanning failure. In this article, a new method to generate scanning-robust aesthetic QR codes is proposed, which is based on a module-based scanning probability estimation model that can effectively balance the tradeoff between visual quality and scanning robustness. Our method locally adjusts the luminance of each module by estimating the probability of successful sampling. The approach adopts the hierarchical, coarse-to-fine strategy to enhance the visual quality of aesthetic QR codes, which sequentially generate the following three codes: a binary aesthetic QR code, a grayscale aesthetic QR code, and the final color aesthetic QR code. Our approach also can be used to create QR codes with different visual styles by adjusting some initialization parameters. User surveys and decoding experiments were adopted for evaluating our method compared with state-of-the-art algorithms, which indicates that the proposed approach has excellent performance in terms of both visual quality and scanning robustness.

In this paper, we present a novel solution to detect forgery and fabrication in passports and visas using cryptography and QR codes. The solution requires that the passport and visa issuing authorities obtain a cryptographic key pair and publish their public key on their website. Further they are required to encrypt the passport or visa information with their private key, encode the ciphertext in a QR code and print it on the passport or visa they issue to the applicant. The issuing authorities are also required to create a mobile or desktop QR code scanning app and place it for download on their website or Google Play Store and iPhone App Store. Any individual or immigration uthority that needs to check the passport or visa for forgery and fabrication can scan its QR code, which will decrypt the ciphertext encoded in the QR code using the public key stored in the app memory and displays the passport or visa information on the app screen. The details on the app screen can be compared with the actual details printed on the passport or visa. Any mismatch between the two is a clear indication of forgery or fabrication. Discussed the need for a universal desktop and mobile app that can be used by immigration authorities and consulates all over the world to enable fast checking of passports and visas at ports of entry for forgery and fabrication

To improve on our previously proposed but problem-plagued innovation for generating animated and illustrated Quick Response (QR) codes, this paper proposes a method which formulates the animated QR code generation problem as an optimization problem rather than as a set of still QR code decoration problems. The proposed method also uses optimization operators designed for this problem and quality evaluation to maintain natural, smooth movement. Experiments demonstrate that the proposed method can generate animated QR codes involve a maximum of eight illustrations moving inside the code which maintaining decoding feasibility and smooth illustration movement.<FONT color="red" size="3">Erratum<br /></FONT> <FONT color="red" size="2">Due to a wrong manipulation during the correction of the proofs of the above paper, the running head title (short title) was incorrect. The correct running head title should have read as "Animated Two–Dimensional Barcode Generation."</FONT>

This research aims to establish a reservation system or reservation schedule for health services in the health facility class one. This system uses qr code technology to identify health service schedule orders made by users. This system consists of a laptop webcam that functions as a device for reading data in QR codes, Arduino Uno microcontroller as a data processor for reading QR code results, an MP3 player module as a device for storing sound output, speakers functioning as sound output devices for reading QR codes and Android application as a system interface for ordering health service schedules in health facility class one and accessing databases. Ordering a health service schedule starts with the selection of the service schedule by the user on the android application, then the user will get a qr code as proof of the order made to identify the sequence that will later be read by the webcam laptop and the results processed by Arduino followed by the voice output from the speaker. This study shows the success rate of the system in making online schedule bookings by 100%. In the process of identifying the QR code using a webcam with bright lighting conditions it has a 100% success rate and with a reading range of 11-20 cm a 90% success rate is obtained.
