3.1.1. The GENIUS Compact-B (Basic) confi guration
In this basic confi guration of the GENIUS Compact several cameras (2, 4 or 6) will be used to inspect
the product in the fi rst scan zone on the belt (scan zone 1). The cameras can be placed perpendicular
to the belt, or looking under an angle or a combination of the 2. Perpendicular cameras can be used to
inspect fl at products or to perform shape sorting (see picture 3.1.1a & b). When the product is rounder,
such as a potatoes, the cameras will be placed under an angle (see picture 3.1.1c), to see as much of
the surface of the product as possible. Cameras can be either monochrome (black and white) or colour
cameras.
