Abstract

The dissertation discusses the use of image analysis in the task of automated quality control of confectionery production - Skittles candies. The quality control of the sweets production presented in the article includes the evaluation of the shape of candies and the assessment of the quality of the glaze. The key element of shape control is to check the sweets for crumbled and cracked products. Glaze inspection, on the other hand, includes the assessment of cracks and discolorations arising on the surface. The dissertation presents briefly a method of image acquisition and discusses the method of image analysis and measurement of selected parameters that describes the shape as well as the quality of the glaze. The aim of the project was to prepare an automated control system of parameters for the food industry.
