Περίληψη: The unique hollowed-out catamaran hulls and complex environmental conditions in lake areas hinder traditional ranging algorithms (combining target detection and stereo matching) from accurately obtaining depth information near the center of ships. This not only impairs the navigation of electric tourist boats but also leads to high computing resource consumption. To address this issue, this study proposes a ranging method integrating improved ORB (Oriented FAST and Rotated BRIEF) with stereo vision technology. Combined with traditional optimization techniques, the proposed method calculates target distance and angle based on the triangulation principle, providing a rough alternative solution for the "gap period" of stereo matching-based ranging. The method proceeds as follows: first, it acquires ORB feature points with relatively uniform global distribution from preprocessed binocular images via a local feature weighting approach; second, it further refines feature points within the ROI (Region of Interest) using a quadtree structure; third, it enhances matching accuracy by integrating the FLANN (Fast Library for Approximate Nearest Neighbors) and PROSAC (Progressive Sample Consensus) algorithms; finally, it applies the screened matching point pairs to the triangulation method to obtain the position and distance of the target ship. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm improves processing speed by 6.5% compared with the ORB-PROSAC algorithm. Under ideal conditions, the ranging errors at 10m and 20m are 2.25% and 5.56%, respectively. This method can partially compensate for the shortcomings of stereo matching in ranging under the specified lake area scenario. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
