Abstract

While automated optical inspection (AOI) is an effective means to evaluate the quality of wood product, there are very few other applications of AOI in the domestic wood factories. For example, defects of holes or cavities on the surface of wood product currently are still found and filled with glue by human labor. In this paper, we propose using the laser triangulation method of 3D machine vision, to detect defects (holes or cavities) for a large area of lumber surface, and the information collected can be used in the automatic filling machine for further filling process. This method proved to be unaffected by wood surface texture, and can identify the cavity defect with a size larger than 1 mm under the speed of 3.6 m/min for wood with 1.5 m wide.
