A Simple Diameter Measurement of Cylindrically Objects Using Non Contact Realtime Infrared Sensor

Common agricultural activities in developing countries, especially in the process related to observation, monitoring and measurement of specific varied data about the growth and development of special fruit corps are still done manually. A complex decision support system based on electronic sensors has been designed to help determine policy in setting the target of cultivation in order to obtain the appropriate product. In this research, we tried to design a simple non-contact diameter measurement model using four infrared sensors VL53L0X, that is attached to a circular frame, specifically to measure the diameter of cylindrical objects (fruit). Similar treatments are performed on cylindrical objects to test the functional system. The results of the system testing process showed an accuracy rate of up to 99%, which proves that the system is feasible for further application.
