چکیده
The Machine Vision Team of Industrial Research Limited (formerly part of the New Zealand Department of Scientific and Industrial Research) is involved in a wide range of machine vision research and development projects. This paper gives an overview of three projects which have particular relevance to the meat industry. The projects discussed are: (i) development of a laser scanning inspection system for pickled sheep pelts, (ii) 3D shape acquisition and interpretation for machine guidance, (iii) automated X-ray sensing for contaminant detection.
