This paper presents the design of an artificial vision system prototype for automatic inspection and monitoring of objects over a conveyor belt and using a Smart camera 2D BOA-INS. The prototype consists of a conveyor belt and an embedded system based on an Arduino Mega card for system control, and it has as main peripherals the smart camera, a direct current motor, a photoelectric sensor, LED illumination and LEDs indicating the status (good or defect) of each evaluated object. The application of the prototype is for educational purposes, so that undergraduate, master and diploma students can simulate a continuous production line, controlled by an embedded system, and perform quality control by monitoring through a visual system and a personal computer. This allows implementing the topics of embedded systems, artificial vision, artificial intelligence, pattern recognition, automatic control, as well as automation of real processes., Comment: 8 pages, 16 figures, in Spanish language

This document describes the development of a video game prototype designed to encourage physical activity among children and older adults. The prototype consists of a laptop, a camera with 3D sensors, and optionally requires an LCD screen or a projector. The programming component of this prototype was developed in Scratch, a programming language geared towards children, which greatly facilitates the creation of a game tailored to the users' preferences. The idea to create such a prototype originated from the desire to offer an option that promotes physical activity among children and adults, given that a lack of physical exercise is a predominant factor in the development of chronic degenerative diseases such as diabetes and hypertension, to name the most common. As a result of this initiative, an active video game prototype was successfully developed, based on a ping-pong game, which allows both children and adults to interact in a fun way while encouraging the performance of physical activities that can positively impact the users' health., Comment: 13 pages, in Spanish language, 11 figures

3D sensors, also known as RGB-D sensors, utilize depth images where each pixel measures the distance from the camera to objects, using principles like structured light or time-of-flight. Advances in artificial vision have led to affordable 3D cameras capable of real-time object detection without object movement, surpassing 2D cameras in information depth. These cameras can identify objects of varying colors and reflectivities and are less affected by lighting changes. The described prototype uses RGB-D sensors for bidirectional people counting in venues, aiding security and surveillance in spaces like stadiums or airports. It determines real-time occupancy and checks against maximum capacity, crucial during emergencies. The system includes a RealSense D415 depth camera and a mini-computer running object detection algorithms to count people and a 2D camera for identity verification. The system supports statistical analysis and uses C++, Python, and PHP with OpenCV for image processing, demonstrating a comprehensive approach to monitoring venue occupancy., Comment: 8 pages, in Spanish language, 8 figures

The identification and characterization of various rock types is one of the fundamental activities for geology and related areas such as mining, petroleum, environment, industry and construction. Traditionally, a human specialist is responsible for analyzing and explaining details about the type, composition, texture, shape and other properties using rock samples collected in-situ or prepared in a laboratory. The results become subjective based on experience, in addition to consuming a large investment of time and effort. The present proposal uses artificial intelligence techniques combining computer vision and natural language processing to generate a textual and verbal description from a thin section image of rock. We build a dataset of images and their respective textual descriptions for the training of a model that associates the relevant features of the image extracted by EfficientNetB7 with the textual description generated by a Transformer network, reaching an accuracy value of 0.892 and a BLEU value of 0.71. This model can be a useful resource for research, professional and academic work, so it has been deployed through a Web application for public use., Comment: 21 pages, in Spanish language, 7 figures
