METHOD AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR GENERATING POINT CLOUD - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240137646 titled 'METHOD AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR GENERATING POINT CLOUD

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a method and electronic device for generating a point cloud, which involves obtaining sensing data from a sensor, creating a point cloud of an object, identifying outlier points using artificial intelligence, and providing guidance for re-photographing based on the outliers.

• Method for generating a point cloud:

   * Obtain sensing data from a sensor.
   * Create a point cloud of the object.
   * Identify outlier points using artificial intelligence.
   * Provide guidance for re-photographing based on the outliers.

• • Potential Applications:**

This technology could be used in various industries such as manufacturing, construction, and 3D modeling for accurate object scanning and analysis.

• • Problems Solved:**

This technology helps in identifying outlier points in a point cloud, which can indicate errors or deviations from predefined rules, allowing for corrective actions to be taken.

• • Benefits:**

- Improved accuracy in object scanning and analysis. - Efficient identification of errors or deviations in point clouds. - Enhanced guidance for re-photographing objects for better data collection.

• • Potential Commercial Applications of this Technology:**

"Point Cloud Generation Technology for Enhanced Object Scanning and Analysis"

• • Possible Prior Art:**

Prior art in the field of 3D scanning and object analysis technologies may include early methods of point cloud generation using sensors and artificial intelligence for outlier detection.

• • Unanswered Questions:**

• • 1. How does the artificial intelligence model identify outlier points in the point cloud?**
