摘要： A grain angle sensor system for measuring grain angle direction of surface fibers of a wood object with respect to at least one of a surface plane direction or a transverse direction, such as a dive angle, or with respect to both the surface plane and transverse direction. The system includes multiple laser diodes and photosensor detectors integrated into an electro-optical assembly that can sequence the firing of the lasers to minimize crosstalk. An exemplary assembly includes an enclosure housing an electronic control board connected to circuit cards containing multiple laser diodes and multiple photosensor detectors.

摘要： A “woodprint™” characterization and identification technique unique employs cameras (16), lighting (14), camera interface hardware (18), a computer (20), and/or image processing software to collect and analyze surface characteristics of pieces of wood (8) to track them through an automated production process in real-time with information that is specific to each wood piece (8), such as what machining is required, its value, and/or its destination. When a wood piece (8) reaches a point in the production process where a decision is required, its unique identity is used to retrieve appropriate information previously determined and assigned to the wood piece (8).

摘要： The present invention employs a blinded fiber-optic light illumination system (12) to illuminate a wood board (24) with a sharp projected light edge to detect the tracheid, color, and geometric characteristics of the lumber during an automated grading process. The light line (70) employs thousands of fibers (46) of desired length (58) and thickness (52). The fibers (46) are randomized such that fibers (46) neighboring each other in the cable (48) do not necessarily neighbor each other in the light line subunit (42) so that the emitted light has substantially uniform intensity over its spatial range. Multiple light line subunits (42) are positioned adjacent to one an other to achieve a desired light line length (60). A set of image sensors (22) in predetermined positions obtain three types of data from the light incident to the board (24). A computer analyzes the data to interpret the physical characteristics of the board (24) and determine how to grade or cut it.
摘要翻译：本发明采用盲光纤维光照射系统（12）以锋利的投影光边照射木板（24），以在自动化分级过程中检测木材的气管，颜色和几何特性。光线（70）使用成千上万的光纤（46），其被扩散到所需长度（58）和厚度（52）的光线子单元中。纤维（46）被随机化，使得在光缆（48）中彼此相邻的纤维（46）在光线子单元（42）中不一定彼此相邻，使得发射的光在其空间范围内具有基本均匀的强度。多个光线子单元（42）彼此相邻地定位以实现期望的光线长度（60）。在预定位置的一组图像传感器（22）从入射到板（24）的光中获得三种类型的数据。快速传感器（20）获得板的几何数据（24）; 颜色传感器（18）获得关于照射的纹理和缺陷结构的颜色数据; 并且黑白传感器（16）获得管状数据。计算机分析数据以解释板的物理特性（24），并确定如何对其进行分级或切割。
