ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for identifying and recording bottles and/or bottle hampers utilizes a light source for illuminating a target being examined, such as, for example, a bottle hamper and/or the bottles therein. A camera momentarily examines the target. A conveyor transports the target past the camera and the light source. The image produced by the camera is transmitted to a data processing unit, after it has been transformed into digital signals, for identifying the target. A recording device records the target. The camera is a semiconductor matrix camera and the light source emits a lineal light bar and the camera and the light source are so disposed in relation to the conveyor that the light emitted by the light source is reflected from the target under examination on the conveyor to the camera. As the conveyor transports the target past the point of examination, the camera delivers to the data processing unit images from several points of the target being examined and a synthetic, three-dimensional picture of the target is formed in the memory of the data processing unit for identifying the characteristic features of the target.
