Sorting parts on a conveyor belt by color, size or shape is a classic computer vision problem. It is possible that the software could find the part if it is always in the different part of the belt. What you do is first locate the part, isolate te pixels that belong to it, then look at and RGB histogram to determine color The software you use is "OpenCV". It is a library with hundreds of functions, some for getting the video camera data into the computer. You could use either C++ or Python. -- Chris Albertson Redondo Beach, California _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
