In homogeneous products such as jam, they can still be easily detected on X-ray images using conventional image processing: Tiny foreign bodies such as glass splinters, stones or pieces of wire. The situation is different when they are hidden in structured products – for example in porridge or loosely packed almonds. In order to identify them reliably even in such a difficult environment and to distinguish them clearly from product structures and inhomogeneities an AI for X-ray image analysis which is capable of deep learning is already required.
