Patent ID: 7304726

Claim:
An auto distinction system for transmitting a characteristic information as time sequence fluctuation information to a computer, the characteristic information including a defect information, and corresponds to at least one characteristic selected from the group consisting of a width, a thickness, and a stain of an assembled fiber band which continuously moves; the system comprising: imaging means for imaging an assembled fiber band which continuously moves, sync-separating and clamping means for sync-separating and clamping a video signal from the imaging means, detecting means for detecting a characteristic information including a defect information, with respect to at least one characteristic selected from the group consisting of a width, a thickness, and a stain of the assembled fiber band on the basis of a clamped image signal from the sync-separating and clamping means, extracting means for extracting the defect information from the characteristic information detected by the detecting means, and distinction means for discriminating suitability of the extracted information based on an extracted signal from the extracting means and a reference signal with respect to the characteristic or defect information, wherein at least one characteristic information selected from the group consisting of a width count data, a thickness clamped image signal, and a stain count data is transmitting to the computer.
