  • System for analysis of fabric surface
    Patent number: 6728593
    Abstract: A system for analyzing fabric surface appearance includes a feed mechanism for running a fabric over a crest including a frame for holding the fabric bent to form a crest, an image capturing device for capturing profile images of the fabric surface at the crest, and a computer system for manipulating the images. The computer system produces a three-dimensional representation of the fabric surface and identifies characteristics in the three-dimensional representation. The information is compared to reference data to identify a grade for the fabric.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 6, 2002
    Date of Patent: April 27, 2004
    Assignee: The Hong Kong Polytechnic University
    Inventors: Jinlian Hu, Binjie Xin, Yueyang Guo, Edward Newton

    Abstract: A system for analysing fabric surface appearance includes a feed mechanism for running a fabric over a crest including, a frame for holding the fabric bent to form a crest, an image capturing device to capture profile images of the fabric surface at the crest, and a computer system for manipulate the images. The computer system produces a three-dimensional representation of the fabric surface and identifies prominent characteristics in the three-dimensional representation. The information is compared to reference data to identify a grade for the fabric.
