Abstract
ATO-DLO has built a flexible and universal sorting system for pot plants. The system is composed of a colour camera, image processing hardware and specially developed software. It can be applied for sorting of several types of pot plants because of the implementation of learning techniques using statistical discriminant analysis and a neural network classifier.
