Abstract  

The process of sorting onions systematically is called onion sorting. Manual onion sorting is preferred at the wholesale market and in the farming, sector based on different parameters such as size, shape, quality, etc. It is not however a more efficient, consistent, and time-consuming method. In the market, there are systems that can sort single onions based on a single set of parameters. To replace this traditional way of sorting onions, In this paper we are introducing “Automatic Quality Based Onion Sorting Mechanism Using Raspberry pi”. The proposed system combines an automatic onion sorting mechanism with an image processing technique and classification algorithm. E.g., quality-based analysis. This machine can be used for agricultural purposes, and it can also be employed in the food industry.
