When it comes to objective determination of quality in the agro-food sector, many quality criteria cannot be observed by the human eye, and manual work is both expensive, scarce, and unreliable. New technology developments, however, makes it possible to quickly carry out quality inspections of food products from farm to table.
In a free webcast on March 30, Rick van de Zedde, Senior Researcher and Business Developer for Computer, Wageningen UR Food and Bio-based Research Institute, will explore these technologies, including cameras and sensors, computer vision systems, and robotics. He will also discuss advanced approaches for both 2D and 3D visual inspection, objective color measurement, and near infrared hyperspectral inspection that reveals “invisible” deviations, along with advanced methods for automatic image processing. Additionally, he will discuss robotics and provide real-life examples—including long-term academic research and industrial applications—that look toward the future of this field.
Following the conclusion of the roundtable discussion, attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions.
