<![CDATA[Robot application in agriculture can ease the farming process, especially as the harvesting robot for seasonal fruit that is available in a short time. The addition of "eye" as the image sensor is an important feature for a harvesting robot. Thanks to the increment of technology, the camera is getting smaller with better performance, and lower prices. The cheap sensors and components make the creation of cheap and effective robot possible. Image processing is necessary for object detection, and open source software is available now for this purpose. This paper proposes BLOB analysis for object detection of 5 fruits with different shapes and colors. The simulation results show that the proposed method is effective for object detection regardless the shapes, colors, and noises.]]>
