Abstract
The invention relates to a computer-implemented method for optically characterizing a textile fiber structure. A plurality of pieces of information on the color at different locations of the textile fiber structure are detected by an optical sensor system. The detected color information is transmitted to a computer () and is entered into a color space () in the form of a scatter plot () by the computer. A frequency density distribution () of the scatter plot () is determined, and the frequency density distribution () is numerically specified. The invention allows a change in the material of the textile fiber structure to be ascertained and optimizes the elimination of foreign materials from the textile fiber structure.
