 Abstraction
•Fruit detection is an important problem in computer vision and
has many practical applications, such as quality control in the
food industry and automated harvesting systems.
•This involves training a CNN model on a labeled dataset of fruit
images and using an optimization algorithm to adjust the
model's parameters.
•Our results show that the CNN was able to accurately classify the fruits
with an average accuracy of over 90%.

 Introduction
•Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) are a type of Deep Learning
architecture that is particularly well-suited for image classification
tasks.
•In the context of fruit detection, the goal is to train a CNN model to
identify different types of fruits based on their images .
•Fruit Detection System can be established that can recognizes
various types of fruits from images that are captured using any
digital camera or smart phone from various places.

 Project Description
•The main objective of this project is to develop an automated fruit detection
system that can identify and classify different types of fruits based on their
images.
•This system should be able to accurately identify fruits, even when they are
partially obscured, and be able to handle variations in size, shape, and color. The
system should also be designed to be scalable and easily integrated into existing
food processing systems.
•The problem addressed by a fruit detection project using CNN is the need for
accurate and efficient identification of different types of fruits in a variety of
applications such as food processing , quality control .
