Indonesia is one of the most prominent pepper producers and consumers worldwide. Indonesian pepper quality, however, is still low. The pepper’s low-quality problem is caused by the processing that still uses the traditional (conventional) method. This study reviews many techniques that have the potential to improve pepper quality. The review result from the references shows that waiting time (delaying) in the ripening process can increase the pepperine level from 4.33 % to 6.60 %. The pepperine level is the most vital parameter to show pepper quality. However, a more comprehensive result that compares the conventional and non-conventional methods for all kinds of pepper quality parameters still could not be obtained.

“…AIRS cameras combine binocular stereo vision technology with structured light technology to compensate for the disadvantage of low accuracy of BS cameras in dark light environments while retaining the advantage of high depth resolution. The RealSense D435 (Intel, Santa Clara, CA, USA) is a compact AIRS camera that has been used in agriculture for crop harvesting (Peng et al, 2021;Polic et al, 2022) and animal monitoring (Chen C. et al, 2019). Some cameras try to combine ToF technology with binocular vision technology, such as the SeerSense DS80 (Xvisio, Shanghai, China) camera, which can adapt to indoor and outdoor working environments.…”

Tea is rich in polyphenols, vitamins, and protein, which is good for health and tastes great. As a result, tea is very popular and has become the second most popular beverage in the world after water. For this reason, it is essential to improve the yield and quality of tea. In this paper, we review the application of computer vision and machine learning in the tea industry in the last decade, covering three crucial stages: cultivation, harvesting, and processing of tea. We found that many advanced artificial intelligence algorithms and sensor technologies have been used in tea, resulting in some vision-based tea harvesting equipment and disease detection methods. However, these applications focus on the identification of tea buds, the detection of several common diseases, and the classification of tea products. Clearly, the current applications have limitations and are insufficient for the intelligent and sustainable development of the tea field. The current fruitful developments in technologies related to UAVs, vision navigation, soft robotics, and sensors have the potential to provide new opportunities for vision-based tea harvesting machines, intelligent tea garden management, and multimodal-based tea processing monitoring. Therefore, research and development combining computer vision and machine learning is undoubtedly a future trend in the tea industry.

Mental health and psychological distress are rising in adults, showing the importance of wellbeing promotion, support, and technique practice that is effective and accessible. Interactive social robots have been tested to deliver health programs but have not been explored to deliver wellbeing technique training in detail. A pilot randomised controlled trial was conducted to explore the feasibility of an autonomous humanoid social robot to deliver a brief mindful breathing technique to promote information around wellbeing. It contained two conditions: brief technique training (‘Technique’) and control designed to represent a simple wait-list activity to represent a relationship-building discussion (‘Simple Rapport’). This trial also explored willingness to discuss health-related topics with a robot. Recruitment uptake rate through convenience sampling was high (53%). A total of 230 participants took part (mean age = 29 years) with 71% being higher education students. There were moderate ratings of technique enjoyment, perceived usefulness, and likelihood to repeat the technique again. Interaction effects were found across measures with scores varying across gender and distress levels. Males with high distress and females with low distress who received the simple rapport activity reported greater comfort to discuss non-health topics than males with low distress and females with high distress. This trial marks a notable step towards the design and deployment of an autonomous wellbeing intervention to investigate the impact of a brief robot-delivered mindfulness training program for a sub-clinical population.
