2 Euro Coin detector which Country is it? Is it front or backside from this coin?

asked 2015-03-06 04:19:49 -0600

i want to build a smal "2 Euro Coin" Sortermachine. Only "2 Euro Coins" no other are inside the System. But the first Level is to detect this "2 Euro Coins" with a Webcam. After this will be work, come the mechanic to sort over a carousel to sort it out. Maybe LEGO or some Thing else. Relaycard inside a PC...

What i want is to cognition or identification is:

  • Webcam see the Frontside or backside of the "2 Euro Coin"
  • if backside which Country is it?

Known Problems can be:

  • 2 Euro Coins can be lay under or in front of the Webcam in different Angels

Things and Ideas:

  • Light around the Webcam. All Pictures and watches on the coins are with the same conditions
  • The same Background for the Pictures
  • Webcam mounted direct over 2 Euro Coins - Database with Pictures from Coins that i have to detect other coins easyer

Tips for programming !?

Who can give me Tips or Ideas for Librarys or technics who can help me to find a solution or method of Resolution. Java

Thanks for some Tips or Ideas to solve my Problem

Steve

Simply said, a rotation invariant feature detector and matcher to a database. You could use SURF or SIFT if you do not care about licenses, or apply rotation inviariance to for example BRIEF like described here by @GilLevi. Certainly since your images will contain NO clutter at all, this approach should work pretty well.
