Popis: Distance measuring using image processing is relatively simple task when it comes to personal computers as x86 architecture. However, for embedded systems with a smaller processing power, this task becomes more difficult. A laser triangulation distance measurement technique using an embedded micro controlled system, may be interesting from the moment it allows several new applications as autonomy and mobility for blind person trough image processing devices. In this work, the laser triangulation distance measurement is applied trough a laser and a CMOS camera, for an electronic virtual white cane. In order this application be considerable viable, the frames per second (fps) processing rate should be properly measured.
