ABSTRACT
The article proposes an algorithm for detection of orientation of acorns during scarification process. This task is necessary for proper cut off of a part of acorn. Described algorithm uses Harris corner detector for location of acorn's remain of style. The performed tests have shown that proposed method is characterized by a sufficient sensitivity value as a unit of efficiency. Its specificity and precision are also high.
