AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies for measuring rod-shaped products in the tobacco processing industry, particularly the transition and length of segments, lack sufficient reliability and accuracy.
A measurement setup is employed, including a rotatable conveyor roller, multiple lighting sources, and an image acquisition device. Monochrome or colored light is transmitted through an illuminating rod-shaped product, and the image processing unit is used for analysis to determine the segment transition and length.
It enables reliable and accurate analysis of rod-shaped product segments, accurately identifying the existence and boundaries of segments, thus improving the reliability and accuracy of measurements.
