Assessment of Peanut Pod Maturity
2017 IEEE Winter Conference on Applications of Computer Vision (WACV), 2017This paper concerns the assessment of peanut pod maturity through automated visual analysis of the middle layer of the shell, known as the mesocarp. Moisture in the mesocarp decreases with age, resulting in significant changes in color and rigidity. As peanuts mature, the color of the mesocarp gradually changes from white to yellow to dark brown, with ...
