The study of detect the density of knitted fabric online based on the image

摘要

The measurement to the density of knitted fabric by person was time-consuming and discontinuous, which cannot satisfy the demand for controlling the density of knitted fabric online. In the paper, the method to detect the density of knitted fabric online based on the image is put forward. The image of knitted fabrics was dealt with the method of dynamic binarization algorithms. The yarns which can represent the vertical coils of knitted fabrics are extracted base on the texture of knitted fabrics; the number of yarns in the image can be counted. Then the coils are transformed to be regular geometry based on its shapes and get the number of coils. The density of knitted fabric can be calculated based on these data. At last, the result of experiments shows that this method is effective.
