Abstract
A method of area localization of a piece of meat, in particular fish, which is initially subjected to illumination. To perform automated localization of the exact position of various occurrences as well as meat texture, the piece of meat is illuminated in a predetermined patterm to provide contour information, which is recorded in a direction different from the illumination direction, said contour information being then used for providing additional information on the nature and the exact position of occurrences within the contour of the piece of meat.
