On-Tree Mango Fruit Size Estimation Using RGB-D Images

Abstract: In-field mango fruit sizing is useful for estimation of fruit maturation and size distribution, informing the decision to harvest, harvest resourcing (e.g., tray insert sizes), and marketing. In-field machine vision imaging has been used for fruit count, but assessment of fruit size from images also requires estimation of camera-to-fruit distance. Low cost examples of three technologies for assessment of camera to fruit distance were assessed: a RGB-D (depth) camera, a stereo vision camera and a Time of Flight… Show more

“…The point cloud data (PCD) acquired by a LiDAR sensor can reflect the 3D mapping of research targets or automated environmental monitoring data. Regarding the applications of the Kinect RGB-D camera, it is widely applied and convenient for direct proximal data acquisition of research targets, such as the estimation of fruit sizes of on-tree mangoes [ 7 ], 3D measurements of maize plant height [ 8 ] and automated behavior recognition of pigs [ 9 ]. For the planar scanning applications of SICK LMS series sensors, larger range of view sight data could be obtained, such as 3D plant reconstruction of maize [ 10 ], fruit yield mapping of individual trees in almond orchards [ 11 ] and leaf area index estimation in vineyards [ 12 ].…”

“…Prior to calibrating the IPCA using the previously selected machine-vision camera, as shown in Figure 10 , camera calibration should be performed. Here, error factors are identified and calibrated, such as the distortion of the lens (including the radial distortion and tangential distortion that arise when a point in a three-dimensional space is mapped onto a two-dimensional image plane) and installation uncertainties [ 25 , 26 , 27 ].…”

“…Qureshi et al [28] proposed two new methods for automated counting of fruit in images of mango tree canopies, one using texture-based dense segmentation and one using shape-based fruit detection, then compared the use of these methods relative to existing techniques. Wang et al [29] developed a one-dimensional filter to remove the fruit pedicles and employed an ellipse fitting method to identify well-separated fruit. Stein et al [30] presented a novel multi-sensor framework using a multiple viewpoint approach to solve the problem of occlusion to efficiently identify, track, localize, and map every piece of fruit in a commercial mango orchard.…”
