Abstract

The paper proposes a video surveillance scheme for compact placement of a system for railway rolling stock accounting. This design is based on the use of a tilted diffractive optical element and a tilted lens. Such an optical design makes it possible to significantly increase the depth of focus of the imaging system. This work considers the influence of the tilt of a diffractive lens on the shape and size of the focused area. Analytical relations describing the geometry of the focused region for various spectral channels are given. The possibility of increasing by several times the size of the zone of accurate image classification using a neural network has been demonstrated. The proposed approach has been tested on real-world dataset of images of house number plates.
