Abstract: A sorting machine is disclosed in which a viewing window is electro-optically observed using an array of photodetectors, each observing a photo site or pixel of the viewing window. Each photodetector, and thus each photo site can be normalised individually to account for background and photodetector sensitivity differences from photo site to photo site. The machine can sample the outputs of the photodetectors sequentially and, by deriving respective binary "pass" and "fail" signals and supplying these sequentially to the serial input of shift register 100 incorporated in processing means can reject products affording a series, of more than a predetermined number, of "fail" signals and thus reject products that have a larger than acceptable number of adjacent defective photo sites. Also disclosed is a circuit (Figures 3 and 4) for rejecting a defective product based on sensing where its trailing edge is or should be if covered up by a successive overlapping product. Such detection also allows for rejecting products that are either too long or too short. All of this is done by digital processing resulting from the digitizing permitted by photo site detection.
