<![CDATA[The fashion industry in Indonesia significantly contributes to the country’s creative economy. However, public knowledge about various types of fabric materials is still limited, often leading to fraud. This research aims to develop a device that can classify fabric materials based on their structure using computer vision techniques. The device uses a digital microscope endoscope magnifier 1600x USB camera to capture fabric structure images and the YOLOv8 algorithm to classify 17 types of fabric materials from 1,700 raw image data. The research methodology includes collecting fabric image datasets, preprocessing data, and training the YOLOv8 model. The results show that the YOLOv8 model achieves an accuracy of 98%. The classification results are displayed on an LCD connected to NodeMCU ESP8266. System testing shows that the device effectively classifies fabric materials, sends the results to the database via API, and displays the results on the LCD. Overall, this device provides an effective solution for distinguishing types of fabrics and preventing fraud in fabric purchases.]]>
