Notes:
The scattering of near-infrared radiation by intact cherries was investigated as the basis of a technique for pit detection. The magnitudes of forward scatter and scatter at right angles were used to form a pit-detection parameter which was studied as a function of certain variables encountered in processing lines. Surface color, degree of scalding and size were found in most cases to have little effect on the parameter while cherry orientation has a great effect.
