Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of visual recognition, in particular to a plate level recognition device. Background Art

[0002] Existing plywood is manually screened. Since the appearance of plywood varies greatly, no two boards are exactly the same. The size and location of holes and cracks are different.
