Studies Measuring the Rotation Angle of the Driver's Face Method Based on Three-Dimensional Image Measurement
ABSTRACT
Among existing head orientation methods, two-dimensional image measurement method has been widely used. However, this method is greatly influenced by ambient light, and the angle of rotation could be too wide to measure. To avoid this, this study uses three-dimensional image measurement technology which is based on stripy light to collect three-dimensional data of human face, and head orientation can be detected by analysis. The author takes advantage of the human nose as a feature point, and puts forward a method to detect the peak point of the nose from the wing. Finally, the head orientation can be detected through the nose information. In this experiment, the head model is used as the measurement object, and the experimental device based on visible light projection is constructed. The experimental results show that under the condition of infrared light projection, the method adopted in this paper can meet the measurement requirement in the range of ± 50 degrees.
