Methods of non-invasively locating blastoderms within avian eggs are provided. An opening is formed in the shell of an egg at a location under which a blastoderm is positioned based on the orientation of the egg; an image of an exposed inner shell membrane and underlying material is acquired; the acquired image is processed to enhance visibility of a blastoderm in the image; and the blastoderm is located in the image. A material may be applied to the egg to enhance transparency of the inner shell membrane prior to acquiring the image. Locating the blastoderm in the image may include determining location coordinates of the blastoderm in the image. These location coordinates may be transmitted to egg processing equipment for subsequent processing of the egg.

La présente invention concerne des procédés non invasifs permettant de localiser des blastodermes dans des oeufs aviens. Une ouverture est ménagée dans la coquille d'un oeuf à l'emplacement sous lequel se trouve un blastoderme en fonction de l'orientation de l'oeuf; une image d'un chorion exposé et du matériau sous-jacent est prise; l'image prise est ensuite traitée de manière à améliorer la visibilité du blastoderme dans l'image; puis le blastoderme est localisé dans l'image. Un matériau peut être appliqué à l'oeuf de manière à augmenter la transparence du chorion avant l'acquisition de l'image. La localisation du blastoderme dans l'image peut comprendre l'étape qui consiste à déterminer les coordonnées de position du blastoderme dans l'image. Ces coordonnées de position peuvent être transmises à un équipement de traitement des oeufs conçu pour permettre le traitement ultérieur de l'oeuf.
