Visual weight compensation

The invention relates to a method for determining a corrected weight of a mixed volume, e.g., of trash and cotton fiber. A total weight of the mixed volume is gravimetrically measured (102). An image of the mixed volume is created (104). At least one selected component within the image of the mixed...

Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to a method for determining a corrected weight of a mixed volume, e.g., of trash and cotton fiber. A total weight of the mixed volume is gravimetrically measured (102). An image of the mixed volume is created (104). At least one selected component within the image of the mixed volume is detected (106). A component weight of the at least one selected component is estimated (108) from the image of the mixed volume. The component weight is subtracted (110) from the total weight to yield the corrected weight.
