Abstract: A method for identifying keypoints in a digital image comprising a set of pixels is proposed. Each pixel has associated thereto a respective value of an image representative parameter. Said method comprises approximating a filtered image. Said filtered image depends on a filtering parameter and comprises for each pixel of the image a filtering function that depends on the filtering parameter to calculate a filtered value of the value of the representative parameter of the pixel. Said approximating comprises: a) generating a set of base filtered images; each base filtered image is the image filtered with a respective value of the filtering parameter; b) for each pixel of at least a subset of said set of pixels, approximating the filtering function by means of a respective approximation function based on the base filtered images; said approximation function is a function of the filtering parameter within a predefined range of the filtering parameter; the method further comprises, for each pixel of said subset, identifying such pixel as a candidate keypoint if the approximation function has a local extreme which is also a global extreme with respect to the filtering parameter in a respective sub-range internal to said predefined range. For each pixel identified as a candidate keypoint, the method further comprises: c) comparing the value assumed by the approximation function at the value of the filtering parameter corresponding to the global extreme of the pixel with the values assumed by the approximation functions of the adjacent pixels in the image at the values of the filtering parameters of the respective global extremes of such adjacent pixels, and d) selecting such pixel based on this comparison.

Abstract: A low current switch has a flexible movable contact that can be deflected by an actuator. In some implementations the switch may permit a low current switch to be manufactured using elements of a high current switch without requiring large amounts of precious metal. The flexible movable contact may be arranged as one or more cantilevers that are deflected using a rocking actuator. The actuator interacts with the movable contact in such a way as to provide tactile feedback to an operator comparable to a high current switch having a rigid movable contact. Also described are a set of low and high current switches, components of a low current switch, and a method of manufacturing a low current switch.
