Abstract: Apparatus and associated methods relate to a volumetric measurement system using three dimensional (3D) ToF cameras. In an illustrative example, a VMS may include at least one 3D distance sensor unit for monitoring a volume of objects in a region of interest (ROI). The VMS may, for example, include a set of user-defined parameters including the ROI, and temporal distribution of measurement attributes associated with the ROI. In some implementations, the VMS may be activated to automatically generate a set of error compensated volumetrics. For example, the VMS may apply a 3D profile, generated based on signals received from the 3D distance sensor, to an error compensation model. Based on measurement attributes generated from applying the error compensation model, the VMS may, for example, generate a set of error compensated volumetrics. Various embodiments may advantageously compensate for errors including occlusion of objects from the 3D distance sensor.

Abstract: FIG. 1 is a front perspective view of a fill sensor showing the new design;
FIG. 2 is a rear perspective view of the fill sensor of FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a front elevation view of the fill sensor of FIG. 1;
FIG. 4 is a rear elevation view of the fill sensor of FIG. 1;
FIG. 5 is a top plan view of the fill sensor of FIG. 1;
FIG. 6 is a bottom plan view of the fill sensor of FIG. 1;
FIG. 7 is a left side elevation view of the fill sensor of FIG. 1; and,
FIG. 8 is a right side elevation view of the fill sensor of FIG. 1.
The claimed ornamental design is shown embodied on an assembly that may be used, for example, as a multi-dimensional distance measuring device (e.g., two-dimensional, three-dimensional, four-dimensional), which may be implemented, by way of example and not limitation, to monitor fill level in one or more volumes of interest. In an illustrative example, the claimed ornamental design may be implemented on device operating as a photoelectric sensor. The broken lines shown in the drawings illustrate unclaimed portions of the claimed design and form no part of the claimed design. Where no boundary line is shown between solid lines, this disclosure encompasses at least a corresponding embodiment in which a boundary line connects the ends of solid lines to demarcate a boundary between a claimed portion and an unclaimed portion.
