Thesis: Image-based object segmentation on embedded camera systems*

Summer Semester 2025 - fixed-term for 3-6 months

In logistics, the precise assignment of detected features in an image (e.g., barcodes) to the corresponding objects (e.g., packages) plays a crucial role. Currently, only the positions of the features in the image are known, but not the positions of the objects themselves. This leads to challenges in object-feature matching, especially when multiple objects are positioned closely together in an image.

To improve the accuracy of this assignment, the object region in the image needs to be identified. By correlating the object region with the position of the detected feature, the accuracy of the assignment can be significantly enhanced.

The goal of this project is to integrate a demonstrator on an embedded camera system, capable of segmenting and localizing individual objects in real-time using image sequences from material flows.
