The invention describes a method for automatically controlling and selecting
the bodies of slaughtered poultry. The invention aims at providing a very easy
and cost-effective method for automatically controlling and selecting the
bodies of slaughtered poultry. According to the invention, said aim is
achieved in that the body of the slaughtered poultry to be controlled is
selected by conducting color analysis of the light reflected from the visible
surface parts, said light being detected as a diffuse color mixing light
eliminating spatial contours using a measuring technique, wherein the measured
value is used for selection as integrating value for the totality of visible
surface parts.
L'invention concerne un procédé de contrôle et de sélection automatiques de corps de volailles abattues. L'objectif de l'invention est la création d'un procédé très simple et économique permettant le contrôle et la sélection automatique desdits corps de volailles. Selon l'invention, cet objectif est atteint par le fait que les corps de volailles abattues à contrôler sont sélectionnés par analyse des couleurs de la lumière rétrodiffusée par les parties superficielles visibles, lumière qui est détectée, selon des techniques de mesure, en tant que lumière mixte colorée diffuse éliminant le contour spatial, et dont la valeur de mesure est utilisée, pour la sélection, en tant que valeur d'intégration pour l'ensemble des parties superficielles visibles.
