Pulpwood Timber Grading Classifier

A semi-automated system that uses image recognition (from drone or static camera) to accurately grade the quality and volume of stacked pulpwood logs before sale.

🎯The Problem

Buying and selling raw pulpwood often involves inaccurate visual estimation or manual measurement, leading to price disputes and inefficient sales.

💡The Solution

A system that captures images of the log stack, uses computer vision to calculate volume (stereoscopic measurement) and categorize wood quality (species, defects).
