Systems and methods of state detection of material surfaces of wearable objects using color sensing are provided. A color sensor is used to sense light from material surfaces of wearable objects to obtain color sensing data. State information (e.g., tension, compression, deformation, displacement, level of material wear, etc.) of the material surfaces can be determined based on the obtained color sensing data.

A method for determining a cleaning strategy for a soiled textile is provided. The method includes obtaining intensity information representative of a spectral image resulting from soiling of a textile. Further, the method includes determining at least one output variable that is dependent on the composition of the soiling on the basis of the intensity information. Also, the method includes outputting or triggering the output of the at least one output variable. Also provided are corresponding devices for carrying out such a method.

A method of and device for testing and a scale for evaluating a textile for use in an article of clothing constructed of the textile. The method comprises positioning a textile sample within a path of a generated beam of light and measuring the amount of photons absorbed when the light is transmitted through the sample. The amount of light transmitted through the sample is compared to a standardized scale for evaluating the amount of coverage provided by the sample for the textiles fitness for use in the article of clothing. The articles of clothing may be articles of swimwear, athletic wear, or athleisure wear.

A flaw detecting apparatus and a method for a plane mirror based on line scanning and ring band stitching are provided. The flaw detecting apparatus comprises: a line scanning detector, an annular illumination source, a rotary table rotatable about a Z axis, a translation table translatable along an X axis and a processor. By translating and rotating the plane mirror to be detected, an entire surface of the plane mirror to be detected can be detected by the line scanning detector, and the flaw of the entire plane mirror to be detected is obtained by a ring band stitching method. The method of line scanning and ring band stitching reduces the imaging distortion, the intermediate data amount, the difficulty in the distortion correction and difficulty in stitching, and improves the detection speed and the detection quality.
