EVALUATION OF QUALITY OF APPLE SLICES DURING CONVECTION DRYING USING REAL-TIME IMAGE ANALYSIS

Computer-vision technology methods for assessing food quality were evaluated for their ability to provide non-contact measurements of apple slices. The methods evaluated were camera calibration, measurements of physical parameters of apple slices, and measurement of biochemical changes in apple sli...
