Fuente: WIPO "tomato" The invention is a system and method for providing knife blade maintenance recommendations using digital image processing algorithms. The system includes processing circuitry and memory, enabling it to receive one or more digital images of a knife blade, determine the blade's wear condition, and generate a maintenance recommendation. This recommendation includes necessary maintenance actions and tools. The method involves analyzing the digital images to assess conditions like dullness, chips, rust, or deformation and generating recommendations based on at least one of the knife blade wear condition, the knife blade wear severity, knife blade dimension values, and knife blade identity. Additional features include providing URLs for purchasing tools, instructional videos, and receiving user feedback to refine the model.
