Systems, devices, methods, and computer-readable media for determining planarity in a 3D data set are provided. A method can include receiving or retrieving three-dimensional (3D) data of a geographical region, dividing the 3D data into first contiguous regions of specified first geographical dimensions, determining, for each first contiguous region of the first contiguous regions, respective measures of variation, identifying, based on the respective measures of variation, a search radius, dividing the 3D data into respective second contiguous or overlapping regions with dimensions the size of the identified search radius, and determining, based on the identified search radius, a planarity of each of the respective second contiguous or overlapping regions.

A tracking method, for tracking an object based on a computer vision, includes following steps. A series of images is captured by a tracking camera. A first position of a trackable device is tracked within the images. An object is recognized around the first position in the images. In response to the object being recognized, a second position of the object is tracked in the images.

A method is specified for determining a size of a defect occurring in a surface region of a component while a surface modification process is performed on the surface region. The method includes identifying an occurrence of a defect occurring in a surface region of a component on a basis of a set of images and determining a size of the defect in a separate method step from the occurrence of the defect identified. In addition, an apparatus and a computer program are specified for determining a size of a defect occurring in a surface region of a component while a surface modification process is performed on the surface region.

A microscopy includes multiple cameras working together to capture image data of a sample having a group of organisms distributed over a wide area, under the influence of an excitation instrument. A first processor is coupled to each camera to process the image data captured by the camera. Outputs from the multiple first processors are aggregated and streamed serially to a second processor for tracking the organisms. The presence of the multiple cameras capturing images from the sample, configured with 50% or more overlap, can allow 3D tracking of the organisms through photogrammetry.

Systems and methods are described for the fully automatic, template-free locating and extracting of a plurality of two-dimensional projections of particles in a micrograph image. A set of reference images is automatically assembled from a micrograph image by analyzing the image data in each of a plurality of partially overlapping windows and identifying a subset of windows with image data satisfying at least one statistic criterion compared to other windows. A normalized cross-correlation is then calculated between the image data in each reference image and the image data in each of a plurality of query image windows. Based on this cross-correlation analysis, a plurality of locations in the micrograph is automatically identified as containing a two-dimensional projection of a different instance of the particle of the first type. The two-dimensional projections identified in the micrograph are then used to determine the three-dimensional structure of the particle.
