Abstract

The application relates to a method and a device for generating an anomaly map for the detection of defects of a production object. A production object image is divided into a plurality of image portions. An image portion vector is then determined for each image portion. Each element of the image portion vector indicates the presence of reference production object features in the associated image portion. In addition, for each image element an item of location information relating to the image portion is encoded in the image portion vector and an anomaly value is determined on the basis of the image portion vector. The anomaly value indicates a deviation of the image portion vector, said deviation being determined on the basis of at least one reference image portion vector. Finally, the anomaly map is generated on the basis of the anomaly values determined for the image portions. The anomaly values are arranged in the anomaly map on the basis of the items of location information.

Abstract

A method for operating a mobile terminal including an image recording device includes capturing at least one recording of a scene and checking at least one of optionally several recordings checked for the presence of a light source. Subsequently, a position of the light source is determined relative to an optical center and a shape, an intensity and/or a color is determined for the light source. An algorithm trained in relation to imaging properties of a given optical unit is then used to generate a flare image of a lens flare for this light source and the given optical unit using the position of the light source. The flare image is subsequently combined with the recording to form a combination image and the combination image is stored in a memory component.

Abstract

It is an object of the invention to improve processes, apparatuses and systems for measuring a measured variable. To this end, a measured variable is measured in a measuring process on the basis of an NV center as a quantum sensor. The NV center has a plurality of quantum states and is optically excitable on the basis of an occupancy of one of the quantum states into at least one excited state of the quantum states by means of an excitation light. The at least one excited state can decay at least with emission of emission light of the NV center. In the measuring process, the NV center is irradiated by the excitation light, the excitation light having a time periodic modulation, and a respective occupancy probability and/or a respective lifetime of the quantum states depending on the measured variable and the excitation light. A phase shift is determined between the emission light of the NV center and the modulation of the excitation light and a measurement value for the measured variable is determined on the basis thereof.
