We offer a low-cost, relatively small-size device based on imaging and AI technology that enables assessing key quality indicators of tomato fruits (fruit size, weight, and firmness, as well as total soluble solides (TSS), pH, acidity, Vitamin-C, and lycopene contents in the fruit) without having to collect the fruits and take them to the lab for analyses or even touch the fruits. Moreover, the device can provide quality indicators for many fruits simultaneously from a single shot in a speedy process. The latter feature enables the assessment of quality indicators in many tomato fruits in a very short time. It can be used by (1) various food industry companies that want to use a cheap and speedy process to classify their post-harvest fresh produce per their quality or select the most suitable fruits for their specific purposes (products). The device can also be used by (2) farmers to improve the quality of their fruits by tracking changes in quality indicators along the ripening stages and taking specific actions to influence such quality changes or by just integrating the device into autonomous systems (robots that are being implemented in the agricultural sector these days to make the harvest process an automatic process) for smart harvest by tracking the right stage, according to quality indicators, to pick the fruits. Since our offered solution is relatively cheap, we also see a potential use of this device by (3) consumers and markets that want to know the quality of the fruits they are buying/selling. Finally, since tomato has been employed as a model fruit for the scientific community, particularly in the studies on fruit development, (4) the scientific community dealing with fruit quality can also benefit from such a device because it allows assessing quality indicators in many fruits in a cheap and fast way while the fruits are still on the plant (can be used to study fruit quality changes throughout the ripening process, which is of great interest for many researchers studying environmental and meteorological effects on fruit quality indicators).
