produce quality meter
the F-750 produce quality meter uses near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy,developed at central Queensland university, to estimate quality metrics such as dry matter, Total Soluble Solids (TSS or brix), titable acidity, and color. Working like a high-powered flashlight, the F-750 sends particles of light into a commodity, then measures the NIR lightinteractance with molecular components inside of the commodity to quantify user-selected traits. The F-750 has a wide range of applications, from determining optimal harvest timing by assessing fruit maturity, to providing an objective analysis of produce quality of fruit in packing houses and upon import. The F-750 is a handheld, fully integrated system, allowing users to operate it out in the orchard or inside the QA lab. Its simple, integrated user interface makes it easy for anyone to use, while its model building software makes it customizable andversatile. made in USA patented in Australia, China, EPO, New Zealand, USA, and south Africa. |

training materials |
The training materials below are to help one get started in their use of the F-750 Produce Quality Meter and the Model Builder software. Following the standard model building process, the SOP for reference value collection using the example of mangos should be reviewed first,Followed by the instructional video for how to import and use the Model Builder software and finally the videos addressing interpretation of the results provided in Model Builder. The Mango Data Collection Standard Operating Procedure should be used as a guide for appropriate training set creation and corresponding reference value collection during the model building process. The F-750 Demo Reference Values and Demo Training Set files can be used in conjunction with the Interactive Model Builder Demo video. Watch the video and then download the reference values and training set files to try out the software for yourself. For a brief introduction to the statistical results show in the model performance analysis tab in model builder, review the videos below. Start with the Introduction to Model Analysis and then reference the following clips on each of the statistical graphs shown in Model Builder. |
