SYSTEMS AND METHODS TO DETECT PRESENCE OF FLUIDS

A system includes an optical sensor and a processor. The optical sensor has a field of view positioned to include a first fluid channel defined by a body. The processor receives a first image including a region of interest of the first fluid channel. The processor further receives a second image inc...

Zusammenfassung:A system includes an optical sensor and a processor. The optical sensor has a field of view positioned to include a first fluid channel defined by a body. The processor receives a first image including a region of interest of the first fluid channel. The processor further receives a second image including the region of interest of the first fluid channel. The second image is captured after the first image. The processor further generates a comparison of the second image to the first image, generates a binary image using the comparison, and uses the binary image to determine whether a fluid is present in the region of interest of the first fluid channel. If the processor determines that the fluid is present in the region of interest of the first fluid channel, the processor ceases communication of the fluid through the first fluid channel.
