US Patent 11403592 Inventory count method and asset management system

Example implementations described herein are directed to an asset management system configured to facilitate real-time inventory recognition with image analysis tagged with positional information. The example implementations described herein also provide the method and process to improve the accuracy of the pipe detection for counting with various approaches. Referring the expected number of the pipes, example implementations utilize the pipe detection algorithm, as well as the bounding box of the pipe stack, use the knowledge of the physical size of the pipe stack, and analyze a pipe stack from the images of two directions at the end.
