Abstract :
This paper describes a control application based on the vision inspection of an industrial process: a continuous band oven used to bake biscuits. The purpose of the paper is to propose a control strategy able to improve the quality of the baked products and the efficiency of the baking process. The controller feedback is provided by a vision inspection system which evaluates the cookies baking condition on the basis of the biscuits color.
