RADIOGRAPHIC CONTROL APPARATUS, RADIOGRAPHIC SYSTEM, RADIOGRAPHIC CONTROL METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18063025 titled 'RADIOGRAPHIC CONTROL APPARATUS, RADIOGRAPHIC SYSTEM, RADIOGRAPHIC CONTROL METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a radiographic control apparatus that obtains position information about a transmission unit and a reception unit. The transmission unit transmits a radio wave and is located on a radiographic apparatus that generates radiographic images. The position information is obtained based on the radio field intensity of the transmission unit and the reception unit's position information. The apparatus also includes a correction unit that corrects the position information of the transmission unit using depth information obtained from an optical image captured by an imaging apparatus.
- The apparatus obtains position information about a transmission unit and a reception unit.
- The transmission unit is located on a radiographic apparatus that generates radiographic images.
- The position information is obtained based on the radio field intensity of the transmission unit and the reception unit's position information.
- The apparatus includes a correction unit that corrects the position information of the transmission unit.
- The correction is done using depth information obtained from an optical image captured by an imaging apparatus.
Potential Applications
- Medical imaging: The radiographic control apparatus can be used in medical imaging systems to improve the accuracy of radiographic image generation by correcting the position information of the transmission unit.
- Industrial radiography: The apparatus can also be applied in industrial radiography systems to enhance the quality and precision of radiographic inspections.
Problems Solved
- Inaccurate position information: The apparatus solves the problem of inaccurate position information about the transmission unit by obtaining position information based on the radio field intensity and the reception unit's position information.
- Depth information correction: The correction unit addresses the issue of incorrect position information by using depth information obtained from an optical image to correct the position information of the transmission unit.
Benefits
- Improved image accuracy: By correcting the position information, the apparatus improves the accuracy of radiographic images generated by the radiographic apparatus.
- Enhanced inspection quality: In industrial radiography, the apparatus enhances the quality and precision of radiographic inspections, leading to more reliable results.
- Simplified operation: The obtaining and correction units simplify the process of obtaining and correcting position information, making the apparatus user-friendly and efficient.
Original Abstract Submitted
A radiographic control apparatus includes an obtaining unit configured to obtain position information about a transmission unit configured to transmit a radio wave based on a radio field intensity of the transmission unit and position information about a reception unit configured to receive the radio wave, the transmission unit being disposed on a radiographic apparatus configured to generate a radiographic image of a subject based on radiation emitted from a radiation generation apparatus, and a correction unit configured to correct the position information about the transmission unit using depth information about an area to which the radiographic apparatus belongs in an optical image captured by an imaging apparatus, the depth information being obtained from the optical image.
