Wood Recognition and Quality Imaging Inspection Systems

Abstract EN

Forestry is an undoubtedly crucial part of today’s industry; thus, automation of certain visual tasks could lead to a significant increase in productivity and reduction of labor costs.

Eye fatigue or lack of attention during manual visual inspections can lead to falsely categorized wood, thus leading to major loss of earnings.

These mistakes could be eliminated using automated vision inspection systems.

This article focuses on the comparison of researched methodologies related to wood type classification and wood defect detection/identification; hence, readers with an intention of building a similar vision-based system have summarized review to build upon.
