- Abstract:
- Our aim is to establish a measurement system that enables highly accurate measuring mass and length of moving products with a relatively high speed on a conveyor belt. In this paper, effectiveness of the proposed measurement system is demonstrated by an analysis of a digital image taken by a digital camera. The advantage of using a handy digital camera is less expensiveness and convenience for processing. We gave a brief explanation of the length measurement with a digital image and discussed some technical problems in attaining length measurement with high accuracy. In this paper, we demonstrate the results obtained by applying our calibration method to digital images having different dimensions.
