A New Method For Gekko Gecko's Brain Atlas's 3-D Reconstruction And It's Relization

As robot's structural design is complex, the cost is very high and the energy taked by itself is very limited, as these shortcomings of mechanical robot, bio-robot will receive more and more attention.The key to make bio-robots is to insert electrodes into relevant region of the animal's brain. So, first of all, we need to be familiar with the animal's brain, locate the relevant region of the animal's brain.Our laboratory use gekko gecko to make bio-robots. The main job in this article is to segment and register the atlas images, and then 3-D reconstruct the brain atlas to provide reliable date for making bio-robots.We use a conventional method to do some study on gekko gecko's brain, which is brain slices. First, cut the gekko gecko's brain into slices, stain the slices, and photograph the slices into brain slices images, the process of these operations will be introduced in Chapter 2. Next, deal with the brain slices images, segment the different cortical regions, in Chapter 3, a segmentation based on YCbCr space will be introduced, for some characteristics of the brain atlases themselves, this method has taken the place of the artificial method, also it has solved the problem of changing lights when photographing, its segmentation is completed, and the result is very good. In Chapter 4, a registering method based on picture elements'projection will be introduced, the method has its own advantages in efficiency. After this work, 3-D reconstruct the slices images, not only return to the shape of the brain, but also the inner structure of the brain, so we can see the structure inside the brain, and it will provide trustworthy data for inserting the electrodes.The main point in this article is using the method of processing digital images in processing the gekko gecko's brain atlas image. An effective region threshold segmentation method and an image registering method based on elements'projection are proposed. The results have shown that the segmentation is complete, the registering is accurate, and the 3-D reconstruction image is lifelike. The inner structure of the brain can be viewed in any angle. It has made a good preparation for studying more about the gekko gecko's brain and inserting electrodes.
