摘要:The identification and extraction of tea buds is the key technology for the development of automated tea picking robots. Machine vision technology is an effective tool for tea bud recognition. In this paper, the tea tree leaves in the tea garden picking period are taken as research objects, and the research experiments are carried out from the aspects of tea image collection, image enhancement, image segmentation, edge detection, binarization and foreground extraction. After continuous exploration and research, the HSI color model is finally selected. After the S factor was used to grayscale the tea image, the improved K-means algorithm was used to identify and separate the tea shoots. The experimental results show that the improved K-means algorithm has a good effect on the segmentation of young leaves in tea images. This study can provide reference and reference for tea bud recognition algorithm.
