Abstract

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media to detect matrix barcodes. The matrix barcode may comprise a plurality of colors, an infrared layer, and an ultraviolet layer. The matrix barcode may be a fiducial marker for conveying spatial information. The spatial information may stem at least in part from the infrared layer and the ultraviolet layer.

Claims (28)

1. A method, comprising:

detecting a matrix barcode comprising a plurality of colors, an infrared layer, and an ultraviolet layer, wherein the matrix barcode is a fiducial marker for conveying spatial information, and wherein the conveyed spatial information stems at least in part from the infrared layer and the ultraviolet layer.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the matrix barcode is displayed via a physical medium in an environment, wherein each of the plurality of colors are at least one of: an absent color in relation to the environment, and a least prevalent color associated with the environment.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the matrix barcode encodes at least four bits of data.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of colors comprise non-black or non-white colors.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

deriving at least a portion of the matrix barcode from a red-green-blue (RGB) colorspace and a derivative colorspace of the RGB colorspace, wherein the derivative colorspace includes a filtered luminance channel.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein a plurality of least prevalent colors in an environment where the matrix barcode is displayed are determined by a plurality of coordinates sets associated with the derivative colorspace, wherein at least one of the plurality of colors is one of the plurality of least prevalent colors in the environment.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the matrix barcode is based on a related plurality of colors being derived from the plurality of least prevalent colors and another plurality of coordinates associated with the derivative colorspace.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the matrix barcode is detected by a recognition component of a device, wherein the spatial information is conveyed to the device.

9. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions which when executed by a processor cause the processor to:

detect a matrix barcode comprising a plurality of colors, an infrared layer, and an ultraviolet layer, wherein the matrix barcode is a fiducial marker for conveying spatial information, and wherein the conveyed spatial information stems at least in part from the infrared layer and the ultraviolet layer.

10. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 9 , wherein the matrix barcode is displayed via a physical medium in an environment, wherein each of the plurality of colors are at least one of: an absent color in relation to the environment, and a least prevalent color associated with the environment.

11. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 9 , wherein the matrix barcode encodes at least four bits of data.

12. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 9 , wherein each of the plurality of colors comprise non-black or non-white colors.

13. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 9 , storing instructions which when executed by the processor cause the processor to:

derive at least a portion of the matrix barcode from a red-green-blue (RGB) colorspace and a derivative colorspace of the RGB colorspace, wherein the derivative colorspace includes a filtered luminance channel.

14. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 13 , wherein a plurality of least prevalent colors in an environment where the matrix barcode is displayed are determined by a plurality of coordinates sets associated with the derivative colorspace, wherein at least one of the plurality of colors is one of the plurality of least prevalent colors in the environment.

15. An apparatus, comprising:

a processor; and

a memory storing instructions which when executed by the processor cause the processor to:

detect a matrix barcode comprising a plurality of colors, an infrared layer, and an ultraviolet layer, wherein the matrix barcode is a fiducial marker for conveying spatial information, and wherein the conveyed spatial information stems at least in part from the infrared layer and the ultraviolet layer.

16. The apparatus of claim 15 , wherein the matrix barcode is displayed via a physical medium in an environment, wherein each of the plurality of colors are at least one of: an absent color in relation to the environment, and a least prevalent color associated with the environment.

17. The apparatus of claim 15 , wherein the matrix barcode encodes at least four bits of data.

18. The apparatus of claim 15 , wherein each of the plurality of colors comprise non-black or non-white colors.

19. The apparatus of claim 15 , the memory storing instructions which when executed by the processor cause the processor to:

derive at least a portion of the matrix barcode from a red-green-blue (RGB) colorspace and a derivative colorspace of the RGB colorspace, wherein the derivative colorspace includes a filtered luminance channel.

20. The apparatus of claim 19 , wherein a plurality of least prevalent colors in an environment where the matrix barcode is displayed are determined by a plurality of coordinates sets associated with the derivative colorspace, wherein at least one of the plurality of colors is one of the plurality of least prevalent colors in the environment.
