Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0721807A2] The sorting control uses optical identification of the conveyed goods (2) at the input of the sorting station, used for accessing a data memory (8) holding appropriate commands for the successive conveying path sections (9a, 9b, 9c, 9d). The goods are optically identified at further points (9a, 9b, 9c, 9d) along the conveying path by comparison with the previously stored data, to allow further control commands for the sorting devices (10, 11) to be supplied. Pref. the optical identification is effected in each case using a video camera linked to an image processor.
