Designed specifically for breeders, rice traders, and millers, the PaddyCheck 6800 system tests for critical parameters that indicate rice quality though visual images to measure various physical attributes such as length, width and color, polarized translucency images for insights into the internal structure of individual paddy grains, and a texture analysis to determine thickness and resistance to force. The automated, objective, and simple-to-use system takes about 5 minutes total for analysis, and requires no de-husking of the grains, saving further time and user effort.
• How it Works
First a visual image is taken to center the grain and determine dimensions, next, a polarized image is taken to determine translucency, followed by a texture analysis.
• Visual Image
The visual image is used to measure various grain attributes such as length, width, color and more.
• Polarized Translucency Image
The translucency image provides information about the internal structure such as translucency, internal fissures/cracks, and insect damage, amongst others.
• Texture Analysis
A texture measurement of each single grain is performed to determine thickness and resistance to force. Combinations of this collected data can then be used to model and predict complex rice attributes such as head rice yield (HRY).
