Fruit Classification System with a Color Image Boundary Tracking

The quality of agricultural products is classified with various factors which are measured and determined by destructive and/or nondestructive method. NIR spectrum analysis method is used to determine internal qualities such as a brix and an acidity. CCD color camera is used to measure external quality like color and a size of fruit. today, nondestructive methods are widely researched. The quality and the garde of fruit loaded into a cup automatically and measured in real time by camera and NIR system is determined by internal and external factors. This paper proposes modified boundary tracking algorithm which detects the contour of fruit´s color image and make chain code faster than conventional method ...
