Abstract

The article discusses the subject of the use of image analysis in the task of automated sorting of rice grains. The grains are sorted based on a parametric evaluation of the shape of grains and their size. Additionally, in the sorting operation, the colour of the grains associated with the degree of grain damage by fungi or mold may be used. This type of control is important both in the food industry and in the seed preparation process for farming. The article presents the method of recording 2D rice image and discusses the method of image analysis and measurement of selected parameters describing the shape and colour of the surface of rice grains. The aim of the project was to prepare an automated parameter control system for a wide range of grains used in the food industry and in agriculture intended for industrial use.
