A method (100) for optically detecting and classifying empty objects (BC) in a system for returning empties (RS) is proposed, wherein the respective empty object (BC) has at least one optical object feature (L) and is introduced into a measuring space (MR) of the system for returning empties (RS). In the method, at least one first camera (LC) is used to record (110) source image data (D-PIC) of the optical object feature (L) and at least one optical sensor system, for example a second camera (C), is used to record (115) geometrical parameters (GP) of the empty object (BC), wherein corrected image data (D-PIC*) are calculated (150) from the source image data (D-PIC) using an illumination model (IMOD), which reproduces the illumination acting on the second camera (LC) in the measuring space (MR) for a model object having the geometrical parameters (GP), in order to identify the optical object feature (L) and to detect and classify that of the respective empty object (BC). |
