Apparatus and method to determine a distance of a visual object using a label
In a method for determining a distance of an object captured by a camera coupled to a controller, a controller of a computing device receives an image of the object and a label associated with the object. The controller identifies a label image of the label in the image and determines a label dimension of the label, the label dimension includes a real world size of the label. The controller determines a label image dimension of the label image, the label image dimension comprising a size of the label image, and determines a set of optical characteristics of the camera. The controller calculates a label distance using the set of optical characteristics of the camera, the label dimension, and the label image dimension. The controller announces the label distance using at least one output component coupled to the controller.
