Abstract

Ripeness is one of the main indicator of fruit quality, Subsequently the assurance of fruit ripeness stages could be a essential mechanical as well as agrarian concern in arrange to urge tall quality item. Ripeness assessment of natural product is an basic inquire about subject because it may prove benefits in guaranteeing ideal abdicate of tall quality item, this will increment the salary since natural product is one of the foremost imperative crops around the world.. Detecting Fruit ripening stage plays an essential role in many of the food processing industries like fruit juice companies, fruit jam companies, natural fruit flavors producing companies, etc. Also, knowing the fruit ripening stage would help farmers to harvest fruits at an appropriate time to improve productivity and help prevent crop failure. A number of techniques are available for detecting fruit ripening stage like Internet of Things(IoT), spectrometry, chromatography, Image processing, Machine Learning but, most of them turn out to be time consuming and hence are not effective. Also, some techniques require destructive detection approach which makes the fruit unfit for consumption. Using machine learning fruit ripening stage can be detected with minimal human effort and minimal time consumption also, the approach is non-destructive as only fruit images are used in this approach. This paper presents a non-destructive approach using Convolutional Neural Network(CNN) classifier to identify fruit ripening stage.
