Title: Determining the relative position between a thermal camera and a 3d camera using a hybrid phantom and hybrid phantom
Inventor: ROHDE DANIEL
IPC: G06T7/73
Filed: 2018-06-20
Abstract: This document relates to a hybrid phantom having marker patches which are visible both in a thermal image captured by a thermal camera and a 3D point cloud generated by a 3D camera. A thermal insulation between the marker patches and a carrier part of the phantom maintains a temperature difference between the marker patches and the carrier part such that the marker patches are visible in the thermal image. Different optical properties of the marker patches and the carrier part make them distinguishable in the 3Dpoint cloud.

Abstract: A reference signal sending or receiving method and system, a terminal device, and an access network device are provided. The method includes: sending, by a first device, first control information to a second device, where the first control information is used to indicate a first resource used by the first device to send a reference signal; and sending, by the first device, the reference signal to the second device on the first resource. A transmission resource of the reference signal is no longer fixed, and a quantity of transmission resources, locations of the transmission resources, or the like may be determined based on factors such as a speed of the terminal device. For example, when the speed is low, a relatively small quantity of resources may be configured for sending the reference signal. In addition, the transmission resource of the reference signal is indicated by the first control information, so as to improve flexibility of sending the reference signal.
