SortRIPE: AI-Powered Robotic Fruit Grading System

About the project

The Fruit Sorting Robot is an intelligent robotic system designed for automated fruit ripeness classification and sorting. The robot integrates a depth camera for 3D visual perception and a robotic stretch arm equipped with a custom gripper and tactile sensor for ripeness assessment. It classifies fruits into categories such as Underripe, Ripe, and Overripe, ensuring accurate, non-destructive quality assessment.
