中文摘要：

文章采用一种融合Canny边缘检测与区域生长的图像分割方法来分割滴头图像，该算法首先采用自适应Canny进行粗分割，然后对粗定位后的图像进行区域生长，消除伪边缘，最后通过投影的方法精确定位出滴头。实验表明该算法在滴头图像分割中取得了较好的分割效果。

英文摘要：

This paper uses an image segmentation method combining Canny edge detection and region growing to segment image. Firstly, the coarse segmentation is completed using adaptive Canny edge detection algorithm. Then, the precise segmentation is fulfilled using region growing and projection. The experimental results show that this mixed algorithm can locate the dripper fast and effectively.
