Abstract
This paper presents a computer image processing system, which measures the thickness of the food extrudate on a real-time basis. The image processing system was established with a CCD camera, an image grabber, and a 486 PC. The image obtained by the system was analyzed by a devised C-program, specially designed for the real-time thickness measurement of the extrudate. Experimental results showed that the proposed computer algorithm yielded an accurate measurement of the thickness of the food extrudate within 1 second.
압출물의 두께를 실시간 측정할 수 있는 컴퓨터 영상처리시스템이 제시되었다. 영상처리시스템은 CCD 카메라, 영상 취득기, 486 PC로 구성되었다. 시스템에 들어온 영상은 실시간 측정을 위해 작성된 C-프로그램에 의하여 분석되었다. 제안된 컴퓨터 알고리즘을 이용하여 정확한 압출물의 두께 측정이 실시간 내에 가능하였으며 처리 시간은 1초 이내였다.
