METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DETECTING MOISTURE LEVELS IN WOOD PRODUCTS USING NEAR INFRARED IMAGING

摘要

Near InfraRed NIR technology, including NIR cameras and detectors, is used to accurately identify moisture content and the specific locations of the moisture on an entire surface of a veneer sheet or other wood product. Based on the identified moisture content for a given wood product, one or more actions are taken with respect to wood product to ensure the wood product is put the most efficient, effective, and valuable use.
