Abstract

In response to the simultaneous movement of seismic isolators and cameras during earthquakes, this paper proposes a three-dimensional displacement measurement method based on monocular vision. This method involves placing a chessboard target on the upper and lower supports of the isolator and using a camera to monitor the target. The system identifies image feature points and calculates the relative position between the camera and the target using corner detection and the PnP algorithm, thereby determining the positional relationship between the targets and calculating the three-dimensional displacement of the seismic isolator. To improve image clarity, this paper introduces video super-resolution processing technology. Real-time hybrid experiment results show that, despite the increased measurement error due to camera movement, the displacement measurement accuracy of this method is still controlled within 2.5mm, demonstrating its effectiveness under the impact of earthquakes.
