Abstract

This study proposes an automatic apple sorting and quality inspection system, which is based on real-time processing. Golden and Starking Delicious, and Granny Smith apple cultivars are sorted into different classes by their colour, size and weight. It also detects apples affected by scab, stain and rot.
