ABSTRACT
This study was carried out in
the University of Campinas to study the three-dimensional reconstruction of
grape bunches through the application of the Moiré technique as an alternative and
innovative method, using low-cost equipment for data acquisition. This study
proposed the three-dimensional
visualization of grapes and topography on Xi axes through the
Moiré projection technique. The artificial grapes with
a 20 cm long bunch and 18.45 mm average diameter for
each grape were used. A projector was used to
generate a grid with light and dark lines. The grape bunch was placed on a holder, illuminated by a
sinusoidal grid and photographed. After processing the images, a
three-dimensional map of the fruit and topography on Xi axes were obtained. The
three-dimensional fruit observation allows the visualization of the higher and
lower regions of the three-dimensional configuration through a color map. This
result makes it possible to obtain size and shape of the grape bunch, allowing
for the process automation of product selection and classification.
