Identification and Classification of the Tea Samples by Using Sensory Mechanism and Arduino UNO

Abstract

Tea is the most popular hot beverageworldwide. In 2020, the value of the global tea market was almost USD 200 billion, and is estimated to reach up to USD 318 billion by the year 2025. Tea has been included as part ofa regular diet for centuries because of its various health benefits. However, tea is acidic, and over-consumption causes heat problems, disturbance of the sleep cycle, tooth erosion, and low calcium absorption in the body. Strong tea concentration is very harmful and toxic. The safe consumption of tea should be guaranteed. The treatment applied in this research work is on sensory mechanisms and Arduino UNO. The objective of this paper is to find out community interest in a particular tea species and inform them about tea overdose.The acidity is mapped with tea taste in terms of strong, medium, and low flavors. Based on the data analysis, the results differentiatethe acidity level of black tea (pH: 3.89–4.08) as very high, green tea (pH: 4.68–4.70) is in the 2nd position, and the energy drink Herbalife Nutrition (pH: 5.59–5.64) is the least acidic comparatively, with a proportion ratio 1:10 of tea to water. Experimental analysis reveals that in the additives, lemon is most acidic, followed byginger, lemongrass, and Tulasi.

Hibiscus, Rooibos, and Yerba Mate for Healthy Aging: A Review on the Attenuation of In Vitro and In Vivo Markers Related to Oxidative Stress, Glycoxidation, and Neurodegeneration

“…Flavonoids and alkaloids are present in a wide variety of foods, including herbs that have remarkable therapeutic properties and have long been used in tea preparations. Teas are the most consumed plant-based beverages with a high-value market around the world, expected to reach $318 billion by 2025 [ 82 , 83 ]. The tea market is mainly driven by black, oolong, and green tea products derived from Camellia sinensis [ 84 ].…”

Experimental Prototype of Electromagnetic Emissions for Biotechnological Research: Monitoring Cocoa Bean Fermentation Parameters

“…The software provides a user-friendly interface to observe and analyze the electromagnetic emission data captured by the Hall effect sensor and Arduino nano board. The data collected during the experiments were stored in a local file, ensuring data integrity and accessibility for further analysis [ 37 , 38 ] ( Figure 1 ).…”

“…The linearity reveals adequate regression and proportionality in the measurements, and the linear model obtained is unaffected by systematic errors [ 36 , 38 , 40 ]. The response factors are similar, showing adequate precision of the measurements and the SEH reliability of the responses about the GEs ( Table 1 ).…”

TIP CUP: An Interactive System to Promote Tea-Drinking Activities

“…Tea is one of the most popular beverages in the world and from ancient times, people have had a good habit of drinking tea as it is considered to be health-promoting [1,2,3]. Factors such as water quality and temperature during the brewing process can determine the taste, flavor, and nutrient precipitation of tea, which can make brewing quality tea a challenging task, and excessive tea consumption can lead to insomnia and dental erosion [5].…”
