Title: Inspection of wood surface roughness
Inventor: PAAVOLA JYRI
IPC: G01B11/30
Filed: 2005-05-16
Abstract: A method for optical inspection of surface roughness of a piece of wood is disclosed, wherein the surface roughness is hirsuteness of the wooden surface. The method comprises: directing light to the surface of a piece of wood to be inspected in a direction that deviates from the normal to the surface, shifting the surface and the light beam relative to each other, receiving light reflected from the surface with a camera that has an image plane formed of several light sensitive optoelectronic pixels working as an optoelectronic detector, and calculating values corresponding to the surface roughness on the electronic signal produced by the detector. The method inspects hirsuteness by: providing an unfocused light beam to illuminate the surface; taking at predetermined intervals images of the surface of the piece of wood moving relative to the camera, each image having the form of electronic image data; subtracting the image data of two consecutive electronic images from each other yielding a set of pixel-related difference data, which describes the wooden surface under study; and using the difference data for stating variations in the surface hirsuteness of the surface under study.
