Geometry-based CT scanner for measuring logs in sawmills ?
Presents an X-ray CT scanner for log measurement suitable for industrial use. Uses geometry-based voxels to guide and stabilize the feature identification. Coarse spatial and density resolutions allow the use of simple algebraic inversion. Good results can be achieved using relatively low quality data. A laboratory prototype has been constructed and successfully demonstrated.
