Location and correction of geometrically transformed QR code image

Description: QR code is a popular monochrome two-dimensional bar code, which is typically used to store website address. In most cases, this information is retrieved via a camera phone. The QR code is often captured by the user in different location, angle and lighting condition. The aim of this project is to propose and develop an algorithm that can (1) locate and extract the QR code from the captured image, and (2) correct any geometrical transformation that exists in the image.<br />

– Proposed Approach (ignore)<br />
Break the project into a set of specific tasks. Propose an appropriate and innovative<br />
approach to carry out each of these tasks. These tasks will vary depending on the nature<br />
of the project. For literature review tasks, identify the databases and bodies of literature<br />
that will drive the review. For theoretical tasks, identify the approach that will be<br />
developed. For modelling tasks, identify the computing resources that will be used, or<br />
the platform for the development of any new software. For experimental tasks, describe<br />
the equipment and specific techniques that will be employed. For design tasks, identify<br />
the tools that will be required. Also, ascertain the availability and accessibility of<br />
experimental equipment, computing resources, work space, and so on.<br />
<br />
– Timeline (ignore)<br />
Provide a clear description of a well thought out project timeline. The use of graphs is<br />
highly recommended. Determine whether or not the proposed timeline is realistic.<br />
Identify and discuss all items on the critical path. Note that this timeline covers the<br />
entire project in both semesters.<br />
<br />
– Health Risk Assessment (*Important)<br />
Provide a thorough assessment of the likely risks associated with the project; this is in<br />
terms of the Occupational, Safety and Health risks. State the plausibility of each risk.<br />
Provide risk management strategies to eliminate or mitigate the risks discussed. Also,<br />
determine whether or not the proposed risk management strategies are plausible and<br />
reasonable. The use of tables to present your findings is highly recommended.<br />
<br />
-Progress to Date (ignore)<br />
Summarise any results obtained to date if you have already made substantial progress<br />
by the time of writing the project proposal. Although no marks will be awarded directly<br />
on this section, information presented here will be treated as additional supporting<br />
evidence for statements made in other sections.<br />
<br />
– Conclusion<br />
Provide a brief conclusion here.<br />
– References (* using IEEE referencing style)<br />
Adequate and relevant references should be provided with complete details and in a<br />
consistent and correct format. Ensure all references are cited properly in text.<br />
