Embodiment 1

[0036] Citrus with different sugar content has different absorption and reflection of electromagnetic waves in different bands during the growth process, which makes its appearance and coloring different, thus forming different colors on the appearance of the fruit. Therefore, the sugar content of citrus can be ascertained and graded non-destructively by means of color images.

[0037] Such as figure 1 As shown, the present embodiment provides a method for determining the sugar content of fruit, comprising the steps of:

[0038] Step 11, obtain the color image and weight of the fruit.

[0039] The color image is obtained by a camera, and the weight can be obtained by a weight sensor or an electronic scale.

[0040] Step 12, obtain sugar content parameter from the color image of fruit;

[0041] Step 13, determine the sugar content of the fruit by using the sugar content model according to the sugar content parameters and weight

[0042] In step 12, in order to obtain the su...

Embodiment 2

[0091] This embodiment provides a device for determining the sugar content of fruit, which includes:

[0092] The information acquisition device is used to obtain the color image and weight of the fruit; the image acquisition device can be a camera or any equipment with a camera, and the weight is obtained by a weight sensor or an electronic scale; the calculation unit is used to obtain the color image of the fruit A sugar content parameter is obtained; a determination unit is used for determining the sugar content of the fruit by using a sugar content model according to the sugar content parameter and weight.

[0093] For the working principle of each unit in this embodiment, refer to the description of Embodiment 1.

[0094] According to the present invention, the sugar content of fruit can be measured by ordinary cameras and computers. Therefore, the present invention does not need to add additional equipment to estimate the sugar content of fruit. The technology of the pre...

Abstract

The invention provides a method and device for determination of a fruit sugar degree. The method and device realize lossless estimation of a fruit sugar degree. The method comprises the following steps of acquiring a colorized image and weight of a fruit, acquiring a sugar degree parameter from the colorized image of the fruit and determining a fruit sugar degree by a sugar degree model according to the sugar degree parameter and the weight. The device comprises an information acquisition device for acquiring a colorized image and weight of a fruit, a calculating unit for acquiring a sugar degree parameter from the colorized image of the fruit, and a determination unit for determining a fruit sugar degree by the sugar degree model according to the sugar degree parameter and the weight. Through a common camera and a computer, fruit sugar degree determination is realized and thus the method can realize estimation of a fruit sugar degree without an additional device and is very suitable for fruit grading of a small enterprise.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a technology for determining fruit quality, in particular to a method and device for determining the sugar content of fruit. Background technique [0002] The prices of fruits of different qualities vary greatly, and fruit quality grading has always been valued by fruit farmers and merchants. Different from the sampling inspection of the quality of many items, fruit grading requires that each fruit be graded. Since the quality of fruit is often manifested in the external form, it is possible for people to infer the internal information of the fruit through the external form. With the simplification and cheapness of digital image acquisition, the image-based fruit quality research is objectively promoted, and it is hoped to realize the automation of fruit quality detection. In this kind of research on fruit quality, because citrus has a wide distribution range and large yield, it has become a hot spot of concern. The following...
