Fabric quality and lifespan are essential. These types of deformations can be detected through tests conducted with devices that simulate usage conditions. This is determined by recreating it in a laboratory environment. After the tests, the deformed The fabrics are subjected to a subjective visual examination. The degree of deformation is assessed on each surface. It is evaluated using scales consisting of black-and-white papers specific to the defect. Color, 20 All fabrics with patterned, textured or dimensional surfaces are identified through visual inspection. This method helps prevent potential inaccurate ratings. It is evaluated. US6842532B2, especially regarding wrinkle formation, depends on the fabric / textile structure and garment type. a method for three-dimensional measurement, evaluation and classification of appearance and it is related to the device. In this method, at least two, preferably four, parallel beams of light are directed at different angles. The light is directed at the fabric sample, and the light reflected from the sample surface is projected onto the fabric. It is captured in multiple images by a fixed digital camera. This multi-angle The images are analyzed to calculate surface gradients; the wrinkling on the fabric surface is 30. The quantity is determined using the parameters P and Q derived from these gradients, and the value of P+Q is... It is used as a numerical quality score representing the appearance of the fabric surface. This numerical The value is subjective, allowing for an objective grading of the fabric's appearance. It is calibrated according to the evaluation results. Accordingly, parallel light beams are viewed from different angles. light is directed onto a fabric sample; the light reflected from the surface of the sample is then directed at a stationary 35 Multiple images are captured using a digital camera; these multi-angle images are then analyzed. 2 The amount of wrinkling on the fabric surface is determined based on surface gradients, and P The P+Q value, derived from the parameters P and Q, represents the appearance of the fabric surface. It is used as a numerical quality score. DE4132992A1 is a 5-digit code for the objective evaluation of textile surface properties. It relates to the method and system. In this method, a camera is used under suitable lighting conditions. The fabric image captured is digitized, and grayscale or color rendering is applied from the image data. Statistical parameters are calculated based on density distributions. The analysis results are standardized. Reference values or reference fabric images (e.g., AATCC wrinkle standards, colorless) (fabric references or initial samples) are evaluated by comparison, and these 10 The comparison results include wrinkling value, dyeing homogeneity, or color impression. Quantitative quality metrics such as variation are calculated using formulas. On the textile surface visual changes, quantitative and repeatable quality without the need for subjective evaluations. They can be expressed as scores. EP3588434B1 is used to detect fiber damage on the surface of fabric samples. imaging the same surface area of the sample under different light directions and this multi-angle It involves the process of capturing images using a three-dimensional camera system. The resulting images quantify surface irregularities by applying a contrast function. 20 These parameters are converted into measurable parameters that indicate the degree of fiber damage. The generated numerical data are analyzed using statistical methods, and each fabric is examined. They are used as numerical quality indicators showing the level of degradation of the sample; this is the current a system with higher discriminatory power compared to visual rating systems Provides evaluation. 25 Current pilling assessment systems widely used in the textile industry, It is based on assessments made by the technical staff working in the laboratory. The fabric and evaluation sheets are placed in a cabinet, and the level of pilling on the fabric is measured. They are rated according to a scoring scale. While these evaluations are subjective, there are 30 different When evaluating fabric types, a lack of knowledge and experience often leads to inaccurate and inconsistent decisions. This leads to inaccurate results. Consequently, the levels of pilling in fabrics are incorrect. This determination can lead to customers being misled about fabric quality and complaints. This is the reason. The only product competing with this traditional method is SDL Atlas's "Pill Grade". This product requires the fabric to be twisted during the evaluation process, therefore, every 35 It cannot provide accurate results for the fabric type and has low repeatability. 3 Current methods do not objectively determine surface deformations of fabric samples. Determining fabric types through examination, artificial intelligence based on the obtained images. Using this method, identify the type of fabric sample and create an image based on the identified fabric type. Selecting and applying processing steps, fabric aging using a comparison algorithm. processing the pre- and post-simulation images of the sample subjected to simulation and 5 using an algorithm to eliminate the static visual effects resulting from the fabric's natural texture. It lacks the ability to lift. All the problems mentioned above ultimately necessitate an innovation in the relevant technical field.

The image processing unit (600) provides a stable image resulting from the natural texture of the fabric. To suppress flood features, a re-analysis of pre- and post-simulation image sets was performed. It uses a reference algorithm and applies pre-treatment steps depending on the specified fabric type.

It can be moved within a 360-degree range. 30 In one configuration, the image processing unit (600) is placed on the rotating platform (200). by applying a grayscale transformation to the images of the fabric sample It is structured; these images are captured by the image acquisition unit (400). Each In the image, pixel 35 shows two dominant peaks that form horizontally and vertically within the spectrum. A 2D Fourier transform can be performed to determine their base positions. Image acquisition unit Derived from the distance between the fabric sample on platform (200) and (400) 9 Using a pixel / mm scale, the horizontal peak weft density (threads / cm) and the vertical peak weft density are determined. The point can provide warp density (yarns / cm). For knitted fabrics, the same spectral analysis, It can provide row frequency and bar frequency. Measurement is done by the image processing unit (600). The rotating platform (200) can be repeated in three different angular positions and the average and standard Deviation is reported. 5 In one application, the image processing unit (600) is pre-trained with fabric type labels.

In one configuration, the image processing unit (600) processes the fabric surface in the same multi-angle grayscale. It is configured to process images by dividing them into small regional windows; during this process Average brightness and standard deviation are calculated for each window. The entire image is 25 The coefficient of variation (CV%) is calculated using the formula CV% = 100·σ / μ; furthermore, Periodic irregularity components (moiré bands, local band repeats) in the Fourier spectrum It is reported as a separate spectral disorder index. In one application, 30 uniform types of warp and weft threads with the same type and linear density are used. A rectangular sample with length L and width W is prepared from the fabric using the yarn. The mass of the sample, M, is measured using a precision balance and entered into the system. Weft density Sa and warp density are also entered. The threads / cm are measured via the image acquisition unit (400) and image processing unit (600). It is determined. The total length of the weft yarns in the sample is La, and the total length of the warp yarns is... It is denoted by Lç. The total of the warp and weft yarn crimp ratios is given by ca and cç, respectively. Yarn lengths are calculated using the following formulas: La = Sa · L · W · (1 + ca) Lç = Sç · L · W · (1 + cç) 5 Since the linear density of the yarn used in the warp and weft directions is the same, it has a common linear density. Density is denoted by T. When the value of T is expressed in tex (g / 1000 m³), it represents the mass of the sample. It is given by the following relationship: M = ((La + Lç) / 100000) T From this, the common yarn linear density is calculated as follows: 10 T = 100000 · M / (La + Lç) When the relationships relating to total yarn lengths are written in place: T = 100000 · M / {L · W · [Sa · (1 + ca) + Sc · (1 + cç)]} If the fabric weight G (g / m²) is known, then the sample area is calculated as M = G · L · W / 10000. It simplifies and the common linear density is obtained by the following relationship: 15 T = 10 D / [Hr (1 + ca) + Sc (1 + cç)] Approximate linear density in applications where the curvature ratios can be neglected: T ≈ 10 · G / (Sa + Sç) The British cotton number, Ne, is obtained from the calculated tex value through the following conversion: Ne = 590.54 / T 20 This calculation uses a uniform yarn with the same linear density in both warp and weft directions. It is applied to fabrics. The system uses a single T value for the common yarn instead of separate values for warp and weft. and produces a single Ne value. In an application, the image processing unit (600) and the evaluation unit (700) are produced by The outputs can be combined into a single fabric quality passport document. The document includes the fabric type, 25 warp / weft (or row / bar) density, T and Ne values of the common yarn, wrinkle resistance value, Irregularity (CV% and spectral index) and fuzzing / pilling / dullness for the current batch. It includes scores; this information is presented both numerically and graphically.
