Popis: Creasing is one of the most important properties of textiles for apparel application. Most fabrics are regularly evaluated by means of etalons, that is, visual standards. Nevertheless, due to the disadvantages of visual evaluation, which is unreliable and time consuming, several objective methods were developed. In this article, a new objective method of multidirectional evaluation of creasing is described. We have proposed the test method of angle recovery using image processing. The specimen of the fabric was of a circular shape and it was measured by the method of angle recovery in various directions. We compared the results obtained from our method with the method described by Sommer and by the hollow cylinder method also. We found good conformity between the results obtained from our method and the method described by Sommer.
