Research on the technology used to inspect the visual appearance of tropical fruit, based on machine vision color space

Abstract

Machine vision (computer vision) technology and image processing has been widely used for the automatic classification of fruit—representing an area for future research. In this chapter, we mainly use the method of machine vision to study color characteristics, size contours, and surface textures of fruit surfaces in the hue, saturation, and value (HSV) color space. The chapter goes on to realize the automatic classification of Hainan tropical fruit presenting typical characteristics.
