Analysis of spatially resolved hyperspectral scattering images for assessing apple fruit firmness and soluble solids content

Hyperspectral scattering is a promising technique for nondestructive sensing of multiple quality attributes of apple fruit. This research evaluated nd compared different mathematical models for describing the hyperspectral scattering profiles over the spectral region between 450 nm and 000 nm in order to select an optimal model for predicting fruit firmness and soluble solids content (SSC) of ‘...

Hyperspectral Laser-induced Fluorescence Imaging for Nondestructive Assessing Soluble Solids Content of Orange

Laser-induced fluorescence imaging is a promising technique for assessing quality of fruit. This paper reports on using a hyperspectral laser-induced fluorescence imaging technique for measurement of laser-induced fluorescence from orange for predicting soluble solids content (SSC) of fruit. A laser (632 nm) was used as an excitation source for inducing fluorescence in oranges. Fluorescence sca...

Near Infrared Spectral Linearisation in Quantifying Soluble Solids Content of Intact Carambola

This study presents a novel application of near infrared (NIR) spectral linearisation for measuring the soluble solids content (SSC) of carambola fruits. NIR spectra were measured using reflectance and interactance methods. In this study, only the interactance measurement technique successfully generated a reliable measurement result with a coefficient of determination of (R2) = 0.724 and a roo...

Multispectral imaging for predicting firmness and soluble solids content of apple fruit

Firmness and soluble solids content (SSC) are important quality attributes for apples and many other fresh fruits. This research investigated the feasibility of using multispectral imaging to quantify light backscattering profiles from apple fruit for predicting firmness and SSC. Spectral images of the backscattering of light at the fruit surface, which were generated from a focused broadband b...
