ONLINE MONITORING FOR WOOD PIECES ON A MOVING CONVEYOR BELT

摘要

This paper presents a Windows based system for monitoring wood piece materials on a conveyor belt. To make the system work efficiently in plants, the system was designed and developed with a flexible Windows platform which mainly consists of image acquisition, image processing, object delineation and analysis, and interface between different computers in use. A number of functions for image processing and analysis are included in the system, A number of newly-developed algorithms can delineate wood pieces with high accuracy and high speed, and in the wood piece analysis part, each wood piece can be characterized by 50-60 parameters that can also be used for constructing wood piece models directly in a Windows platform environment. The system has been tested and used.
