Abstract

This paper presents an application of the Hough transform to the tasks of identifying irregular patterns. The presented method is based on the Hough transform for irregular objects, with a parameter space defined by translation, rotation and scaling operations. The technique may be used in a robotic system, identification system or for image analysis, directly on grey-level images. An example application of the Hough transform to a robot monitoring within computer vision systems is presented. A hardware implementation of the Hough technique is introduced which accelerates the calculations considerably.
