Machine vision monitoring and particle size feed analysis
Journal Title: Mining – Informatics, Automation and Electrical Engineering - Year 2018, Vol 533, Issue 1
Abstract
This paper presents selected problems related to the use of machine vision techniques for the analysis of particle size distribution. The basic steps and conditions for acquiring granular material images are described, followed by further processing and analysis methods. The advantages of 3-D image acquisition and processing have been compared to 2-D image analysis. Several possible areas of application related to the supervision of material transportation, optimization of mineral processing systems, and bulk density measurements have also been presented.
