Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de synchronisation d'informations produites par des dispositifs de mesure optique à imagerie (1-N) qui surveillent le processus de fabrication et/ou de finition d'une nappe fibreuse, par rapport au mouvement d'une nappe fibreuse dans le sens machine. Ledit procédé consiste à surveiller le mouvement de la nappe fibreuse et/ou un moyen de mouvement impliqué dans le traitement dans le sens machine au moyen de dispositifs de mesure à imagerie (1-N) placés en des points de mesure successifs dans le sens machine, et à rechercher parmi les informations enregistrées par imagerie en différents points de mesure, des images ou similaire relatives à la même zone locale de la nappe, pour leur analyse et/ou leur stockage. Dans le procédé de l'invention, une ou plusieurs caractéristiques (30) relatives à la même zone locale de la nappe est/sont recherchées par reconnaissance des formes numériques, dans les images ou similaire, enregistrées en différents points de mesure, et les retards de déplacement de la nappe entre les différents points de mesure sont déterminés en fonction de données temporelles comprises dans la/les caractéristiques (30) lors de l'enregistrement des images ou similaire, au niveau des différents points de mesure. Le procédé de l'invention permet la synchronisation automatique d'informations mesurées par imagerie de manière sensiblement plus précise et adaptative que dans la technique antérieure.
