The Downs CropVision, a new optical sorter for unwashed potatoes, is now available in the U.S. Fitted with industrial cameras coupled with an artificial intelligence algorithm, the machine analyzes the whole surface of potatoes in order to precisely classify them according to their quality. The sorter can identify good, green, cut, spoiled, misshapen or cracked potatoes, as well as dirt clods, stones and waste. The high-capacity sorter can process up to 100 tons per hour.
