Separate object counts through overlapping-package instance masks
Overlapping packages may look like one connected colour region. A semantic mask can show material area without resolving separate object count or visible grasp regions.
Show instance identity, visible area and count together without inventing occluded surfaces. Hold an ambiguous package group for manual separation review.

Solution approach
Pixel or instance masks are derived from the raw image; a coded legend separates background and target regions. Area fractions use only the visible ROI. Assign each package an I1/I2/I3 instance mask and colour visible area only. An unresolved overlap triggers a hold instead of a definite count.
Process steps
- 01
Position
Register the ROI; occluded areas are excluded from visible-area calculations.
- 02
Raw image
Keep the controlled raw image in a separate panel.
- 03
Mask generation
Coded colours show target classes or object identities.
- 04
Region calculation
Derive area fraction, connected regions and the decision metric from the mask.
- 05
Decision
Hold an out-of-limit sample for review with its local region marked.
