Signal recognition and triggering using computer vision techniques

摘要

A test and measurement instrument processes digital data that represents an input signal to produce a target image, and then uses a computer vision technique to recognize a signal depicted within the target image. In some embodiments, the location of the signal within the target image is identified on a display device. In other embodiments, the location of the signal within the target image is used to perform a measurement. In other embodiments, when the signal is recognized, a trigger signal is generated that causes digital data that represents the input signal to be stored in a memory.
