About this technology

Overview

arcjetCV is a software application developed in Python which processes arc jet test videos to extract time-resolved 2D recession measurements. The application employs convolutional neural net models (Tensorflow/Keras/OpenCV) to provide a generalized edge detection/extraction algorithm. The software provides a basic graphical user interface (PyQt) for viewing the edge detection and plotting the time-dependent recession. The application streamlines and automates the many steps needed to extract recession data from video, enabling extraction of time-resolved recession to be standardized.
