A method of sensing the edge of a planar object (10), wherein said edge is illuminated and an image of the edge is continuously registered by an electronic camera (12), the optical axis of which is directed at a first angle ( alpha ) toward the edge. A line (16) on the edge is illuminated by lighting means (11), whose light is directed toward the edge at a second angle ( beta ). The dimensions of the respective recessed and protruding portions of the edge are determined by measuring the dimensions of the image of the line as registered by the camera (12). <IMAGE> |
