Ishita Kumar’s Status Report for 04/10/21

This week, I focused on testing our algorithm on real bananas in real-world conditions for our project. I used white lighting as we plan to do for our final set-up to take pictures. The results were promising. I tested on healthy bananas, and our algorithm correctly identified those bananas as not rotten. I have been thinking about the parts we need for our final set-up and trying to design what we need so we can order the final set of parts for our shed set-up. I have also started looking into other fruits that we are going to use so we can have our algorithm work on those fruits as well and looking into how to use object detection so our algorithm can autonomously detect which fruit it needs to sort. I am also preparing with my team for the interim presentation.
