Inside quality evaluation of fruit by X-ray image

In this paper, soft X-ray transmission images and X-ray CT images were discussed for a fruit quality inspection. Split-pits of peach fruits could be detected through transmission images in a real time, and information of water content distribution and internal structure of fruit were given by CT images and CT numbers. It was considered that a total fruit quality evaluation system would be completed when this X-ray imaging information was combined with ultra-violet, visible, infrared, and other region information.
