Method and device for identifying poultry volume scale and storage medium

Abstract

The invention discloses a method and a device for identifying a poultry volume scale and a storage medium. The method comprises: obtaining a chicken color map and a disparity map, calculating point cloud information and world coordinates, and calculating the volume scale. According to the method, the image information of the measurement scene is acquired by using the depth camera, the chicken is quickly segmented through an algorithm, an external clamping device is not needed to fix the measured chicken, and the volume body size information of the chicken is simply and effectively extracted byusing the computer vision while the normal activity of the chicken is not influenced. The depth camera is not influenced by the light intensity and has good adaptability to a scene with unstable light rays in a chicken farm, the measurement precision can be well improved through algorithm processing, chicken size and body size information is measured through visual non-contact, measurement is easy and convenient, and healthy growth of chickens is facilitated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of visual detection research, in particular to a method, device and storage medium for identifying poultry volume and body size. Background technique [0002] According to statistics, by 2025, the world population is expected to exceed 8 billion, and by 2050 it is expected to reach 9.6 billion. This means that more efficient methods of poultry and livestock production are needed to provide an adequate food source. Poultry such as broiler chickens and pork pigs occupy an important position in poultry farming and are one of the main sources of food. It is of great significance to study the law of breeding development and health warning. [0003] The volume and body size information of poultry is an important indicator in the breeding process. The information measurement involves the volume measurement of irregular objects, and there is no specific mathematical formula algorithm. Traditional measurement methods includ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Traditional measurement methods include contact and non-contact methods. The contact method is mainly to manually capture representative poultry from the farm, and then manually use a tape measure and ruler to perform manual measurement, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. not tall

Non-contact measurements include measurements with expensive laser scanners, ultrasonic technology, etc., which are not used in the conditions of a poultry farm

At present, although some researchers have proposed to use visual measurement to measure, there are generally defects such as high requirements on lighting conditions and unstable algorithms.
