Abstract

Oil palm fresh fruit bunches (FFBs) are the raw material of crude palm oil (CPO) on which ripeness levels of FFBs are essential to obtain good quality CPO. Most palm oil mills use experienced graders to evaluate FFB ripeness levels. Researchers have developed rapid and non-destructive methods for ripeness detection using computer vision (CV) and deep learning. However, most of the experiments used color cameras, such as a webcam or a smartphone, limited to visible wavelengths, and used still FFBs on–trees or on the ground. This study developed a light-emitting diode (LED)-based multispectral imaging system with deep learning for rapid and real-time ripeness detection of oil palm FFBs on a moving conveyor. The ripeness levels used were unripe and ripe. We also evaluated the spectrum of reflectance intensities for the ripeness levels. The ripeness detection system employed a two-class you only look once version 4 (YOLOv4) detection model using a dataset of 2000 annotated unripe and ripe FFB multispectral images and a video of 30 moving FFBs for real-time testing. The results show a promising method to detect oil palm FFB ripeness with an average accuracy of 99.66% and a speed range of 3.32-3.62 frame per second (FPS).

Abstract

Multispectral imaging has been widely used for the classification of fruits and vegetables. This technique offers both spectral and spatial resolution, enabling the evaluation of fruit quality based on its chemical properties. This study aims to analyze the relationship between reflectance intensity obtained from multispectral imaging and the chemical composition of oil palm fresh fruit bunches (FFBs), specifically oil content and free fatty acid (FFA) levels, measured using the Soxhlet extraction method. The multispectral imaging system consists of a monochrome camera and an LED light source with eight wavelengths ranging from 680 nm to 900 nm. FFB images were processed using Python scripts to extract reflectance intensity. The Python scripts were also used to analyze the correlation between reflectance intensity and both oil content and FFA levels. A total of 15 unripe and 15 ripe FFB samples were used. Correlation analysis was focused on the 780 nm wavelength due to its high reflectance intensity. The results showed that the correlation coefficient between reflectance intensity and oil content was r = -0.39 for unripe fruits and r = 0.29 for ripe fruits, while the combined data yielded a strong correlation of r = 0.92. For FFA, the correlation was r = -0.41 for unripe fruits, r = -0.34 for ripe fruits, and r = 0.72 for the combined dataset. These findings demonstrate that multispectral imaging is a promising non-destructive method for classifying the ripeness of oil palm FFBs based on oil content and FFA levels.
