Method for Identifying Replacement Parts and Extracting Features Via a Sequence of Images

摘要

A method for identifying replacement parts includes receiving a sequence of images of a test part. A set of features of the test part is extracted from the sequence of images. The features include at least one of a dimension, a shape, a texture, a color, a material, a thread count, a spectral characteristic, a histogram threshold, scale invariant features, and keypoint features. The set of features of the test part are compared with a database of a plurality of replacement parts. The database stores a set of features of each of the plurality of replacement parts. At least one replacement part is identified in the database, which has a set of features similar to the set of features of the test part. The identified replacement parts are filtered based on priority. A priority list of replacement parts is developed, and is communicated to a user.

1. A method for identifying replacement parts, the method comprising;
receiving a sequence of images of a test part; extracting a set of features of the test part from the sequence of images, the set of features including at least one of a dimension, a shape, a texture, a color, a material, a thread count, a spectral characteristic, a histogram threshold, scale invariant features, and keypoint features; comparing the set of features of the test part with a database of a plurality of replacement parts, the database storing a set of features of each of the plurality of replacement parts; identifying at least one replacement part in the database having a set of features similar to the set of features of the test part; filtering all identified replacement parts based on priority; developing a priority list of replacement parts; and communicating to a user the priority list of replacement parts.
