The application discloses a
water caltrop maturity grading equipment and method based on
visual detection, and the grading equipment comprises a feeding mechanism, a conveying mechanism, a sorting mechanism, an image collector and a controller, the feeding port of the conveying mechanism is connected with the feeding mechanism, the sorting mechanism is arranged on the two sides of the conveying mechanism, the sorting mechanism can push the
water caltrop on the conveying mechanism to move to separate from other
water caltrop, the image collector is arranged towards the conveying mechanism, and the controller is
signal-connected with the image collector, the feeding structure, the conveying mechanism and the sorting mechanism respectively. The application solves the technical problems that the existing water caltrop maturity grading technology has low grading efficiency and low grading accuracy.
