The idea is to evaluate this area scan for identifying the wagon types, numbers, etc.
I am negotiating
with the vendor to puchase one more 3 Megapixel camera. If you provide some pictures it will help
Folks - Halcon API is an industry standard for machine vision. We must show DFCCIL that we are
building solutions with industry standard software
[2:38 pm, 23/04/2022] +91 94490 83296: Suman and Team - The idea is as follows: Install 2 - 75W
LED lamps at the same height at 2.2 meters away from the edge of the track. Install the area scan at
3 meters away from the middle of the track.
[2:39 pm, 23/04/2022] +91 94490 83296: Take both the 2 - 75Watt lamps to DFCCIL
[2:41 pm, 23/04/2022] +91 94490 83296: On Tuesday, I will bring along the: (a) 12 mm lens for
area scan (b) Line scan camera with lens.
[2:44 pm, 23/04/2022] +91 94490 83296: The task on hand at Delhi - To see how we can power the
LEDs place `ON TRACK' to capture the undercarriage pictures. DFCCIL will have to be consulted
[3:40 pm, 23/04/2022] +91 94490 83296: Dear all: We had a discussion in my office a little while
ago. Mr. Rao clarified that the purpose of the site visit at Delhi is not try out any image/video
capture. In view of this, it was decided that we will leave the Line Scan, Area Scan and LED
lighting here in Bangalore. The hardware team, along with Rakshith and Gagana will have to try
out the following:
[3:42 pm, 23/04/2022] +91 94490 83296: (a) Install the area scan (b) install the line scan (c) install
the LED lighting (d) Trigger the a, b and c with the FBG technology. The trigger should come
whenever a train is detected.
[3:48 pm, 23/04/2022] +91 94490 83296: Rakshith, Gagana and hardware team: I have discussed
two packaging requirements with Mr. Singh. Please meet him to discuss the following: (1) Design
of a portable MVIS pole which houses: (a) Two area scan camera systems (b) provision for two
line scan camera systems (c) provision for housing the PC (d) provision for LED Lighting.
[3:49 pm, 23/04/2022] +91 94490 83296: The Second packaging requirement is to see how to
install: (a) the line scan camera systems in between the track and (b) LED lighting between the
track

[4:17 pm, 23/04/2022] +91 94490 83296: Rakshith and Gagana - You have to try out multithreading
to make sure you are able to simultaneously grab the images as well as store the images. The above
link will help you to understand how to capture from two cameras ( E.g Area and Line scan)

performance/
[4:22 pm, 23/04/2022] +91 94490 83296: Rakshith and Gagana - Start from here. first make sure
you are able to multithread grabbing and storage for one camera. The add the second camera and
associated code for grabbing images from both the cameras
[5:03 pm, 23/04/2022] +91 94490 83296: Rakshith, Gagana and hardware team - All future tests for
area scan image capture is as follows: (a) 150 watt LED lamps ( 2 x 75). The lamps available in
L2MRAIL labs (2) 12 mm Lens in lieu of 25 lens. To lens comes with C mount. So it should be
okay. Make sure you store the 25mm lens safely
[5:03 pm, 23/04/2022] +91 94490 83296: *The lens
Rakshith, Gagana and hardware team - All future tests with Line scan for undercarriage is with 150
Watt LED lighting ( 75 * 2).
