Embodiment Construction
[0074] In the foregoing experimental results, subtraction can be used to increase the detection contrast because the pit reflectivity is higher than the meat reflectivity in the SWIR wavelengths and lower in the visible wavelengths. Subtraction is not the only image processing technique useful for increasing the detection contrast. For example, image processing employing division (ratio) may improve image contrast for certain illumination and product combinations.
[0075] FIGS. 18 and 19, show simplified reflectance versus illumination wavelength graphs for peaches and a generic agricultural product. In particular, illumination is shown by spectral lines representing visible wavelengths 180, SWIR wavelengths 182, and IR wavelengths 184.
[0076] In particular, FIG. 18 shows curves representing detected reflectance versus illumination wavelength for peach meat 186 and a peach pit 188. Detected reflectance is shown as milliVolts of detected signal, with peach meat 186 producing a 300 mV si...
