Abstract

The detection of foreign substances in transparent-bottled liquid is a key procedure in production. An improved algorithm based on the combination of guided filter and visual background extractor (ViBe) is proposed for the detection of foreign substances in transparent-bottled turbid liquid on the market. In the stage of image preprocessing, the image enhancement is carried out by the guided filter and then the liquid region is detected by the Hough transform. Finally, the area of the connected region is determined for the image processed by the ViBe algorithm to remove the tiny noise in detection images. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can not only detect foreign substances in transparent liquid but also detect foreign substances in the turbid liquid.
