Abstract:
1. A method for enhanced object detection, comprising: providing front side illumination of an object; capturing, by a computing device, a first image of the object, wherein the first image includes the object and at least a portion of a platform area assembly; providing, by the computing device, backside illumination of the object; capturing, by the computing device, a second image of the object, wherein the second image of the object includes a regional property of the object; determining, by the computing device, an edge of the platform area assembly; aligning, by the computing device, the object from the second image with the edge of the platform area assembly to determine a location of the object; determining, by the computing device, based on the location of the object, a pixel in the first image that does not belong to the object; modifying, by the computing device, the pixel from the first image that does not belong to the object to create an altered image; and providing, by the computing device, the altered image for display.
