Abstract

See full text

Evaluation of carcass, or carcass portions, by object image definition processing comprising the steps of: recording a first image of a background taken from a viewing point; positioning the carcass or carcass portion in the background; recording a second image taken from the viewing point of the background with the carcass or carcass portion positioned therein; and analyzing the first and second images to differentiate the carcass or carcass portion image from the background image for providing a defined image of the carcass or carcass portion, thus resolving the location and/or profile of the carcass or carcass portion positioned in the background. The differentiation includes the subtraction of the first or second image from the other, preferably for each color component respectively, so as to provide a number of component difference images which are then recombined to provide an absolute difference image.
