Objectives: The present study evaluated the viability of three-dimensional (3D) scanning Keywords: as an alternative approach to water displacement for the determination of the volume of Durian, Maturity, durian fruit. Specific gravity, Materials & Methods: Durian fruit samples at different maturity levels and harvested Three-dimensional (3D) scanning, from two different growing areas were determined for volume using the traditional Volume specific gravity method and compared with volumes measured using the 3D scanning method. Each scan took about 60 s. Results: The analysis showed that there was no significant (p > 0.05) difference between the traditional and proposed methods for durian fruit of different maturity levels. The average relative percentage difference was 1.06% (sample size of 116), which was less than that obtained from other reported studies that tested other fruits with reasonable axial symmetry. Main finding: The proposed alternative technique has potential for the continuous and automatic measurement of the volumes of durian fruit on a moving conveyor belt, as a part of the maturity determination process. † Equal contribution. * Corresponding author.

114 T. Cheepsomsong, J. Siriphanich / Agr. Nat. Resour. 56 (2022) 112–120 is likely to be adequately mature; if it subjectively feels too Introduction heavy, the durian is too young (Siriphanich, 2011). Finding the specific gravity of a fruit requires its volume, Durian is an important export fruit mainly from eastern which is usually measured by the slow and cumbersome water and southern of Thailand, with broad consumer approval displacement method; having been subjected to this method, internationally for its quality and taste (Gasik, 2017). In each durian must be dried to prevent fungal growth (Piasai 2019, Thailand exported 655,394 t of fresh durians, valued et al., 2021). Alternative approaches have been devised to at USD 1,421million (Office of Agricultural Economics, measure the volumes of agricultural products. Mutschler et 2021). However, durian exporters may unintentionally export al. (1986) estimated the volume of a tomato by measuring immature durians, damaging the export market. The problem its height and width, with a correlation coefficient (r) of arises from failing to select adequately mature durians for 0.99 compared with the actual volume. Yuan and Sun (1995) harvest, which requires experience and high skill. With suitable developed a formula to estimate the volume of an apple from equipment, maturity sorting could be more accurate. its height and width to within 1.86% of the actual volume. Durian farmers rely on the following techniques to In Japan, the density of a watermelon is related to its determine if a durian is mature: tracking the time elapsed from mushiness and sweetness; however, calculating the density flowering; testing if two spines are less resistant to pinching; requires knowing the volume and this measurement examining if the carpel lines are more dilated; and checking is inconvenient and time-consuming (Kato, 1997). Kato if the sound pitch has a hollow resonation when the durian (1997) developed an instrument to measure the volume of a is tapped (Bureau of Plant Industry, 2019). These techniques watermelon based on its electrical property. The instrument are time-consuming and tend to tire the sorters. An alternative has a hexagonal tunnel whose walls constitute an electrode, option is desirable based on some maturity index that can with the watermelon holder in the tunnel being the other distinguish between immature and mature durians. Currently, electrode. The instrument measures the capacitance between the pulp dry matter is used as an official standard for durian, the watermelon surface and the tunnel walls. The capacitance but this requires destructive testing (Sangwanangkul and was related to the volume of the watermelon (R2 = 0.92). Siriphanich, 2000). Another technique for measuring the volume of a fruit is The specific gravity of a durian is related to its quality, with based on determining the volume of empty space around a Haryanto and Budiastra (1999) reporting that riper Indonesian fruit in its container. One instrument for such a technique is a durians had lower values of specific gravity. Another study on ring system that has infrared emitters and sensors around the Monthong durians produced similar findings (Youryon et al., inner side (Gall et al., 1998). Without a fruit inside the ring, 2017). In a follow-up study, Haryanto and Budiastra (2000) each sensor detects light from the opposite emitter. With a fruit showed that the specific gravity of a Sunan durian was related inside, only some of the sensors detect light. The resulting to its density and sweetness, with coefficients of determination signals are converted into the area of the empty space around (R2) of 0.89 and 0.88, respectively. The specific gravity of a the fruit, which when subtracted from the area inside the ring Monthong durian is always less than one, and decreases as gives the area of that particular cross-section of the fruit. the durian becomes more mature, whereas the initial specific Repeating this for successive cross sections allows the volume gravity of a ripening Monthong durian is 0.95, decreasing to be calculated. Testing this method on potatoes produced an to 0.90 when the durian is fully ripe (Siriphanich, 2011). accuracy greater than 95%, where the accuracy depended on Yantarasri (2002) made a prototype sorting machine based the number of sensors and the size of the ring (Gall et al., 1998). on durian maturity by floating the durian in a tank filled with Nishizu et al. (2001) developed an instrument to measure water, the density of which was controlled and adjusted by the volumes of agricultural products on a running conveyor injecting small bubbles into the water. The sorting efficiency belt. The instrument consisted of a Helmholtz resonator, which was reported to be up to 100% for sorting a mature durian from is a spherical chamber with an open neck at the top. When an immature durian. Specific gravity has come to be accepted as an object is placed inside the chamber and air is blown over one of the maturity indices for Monthong durians (Siriphanich, the opening, the instrument vibrates at a natural frequency 2011). In addition, durian farmers can assess Monthong durian depending on the volume of the object. The sound signals are maturity by gauging its weight when lifted by the peduncle. If measured using a microphone and analyzed for the natural the fruit feels too light based on its apparent volume, the durian frequency, from which the volume of an agricultural product

They found that with a computer software package 3D Systems Sense™ the natural frequency was related to the volume (R2 = 0.97). Version 3.0.213 (Rock Hill, SC, USA). The 3D scanner was Another technique for measuring the volume of a non- connected to a computer via a USB 3.0 port. The computer was spherical fruit, such as a cantaloupe, combined image processing equipped with an Intel i7-8770K processor with 8 GB of RAM with the disk approximation method (Rashidi et al., 2009). and an Nvidia Quadro 2000 video card. To prepare for the scan, There was no significant difference (at the 95% confidence a durian was hung vertically, as shown in Fig. 2. The scan was level) between the technique and the water displacement carried out by manually moving the scanner along six paths method. Costa et al. (2016) took a photograph of a palm around the stationary durian. As shown in Fig. 3, scanning a fruit and used the Moire technique to determine its volume. durian started at point A and proceeded along path 1 toward Compared to the water displacement method, the r value point B, then along path 2 back to point A. The procedure was was 0.65. Concha-Meyer et al. (2018) used a machine vision repeated along paths 3–6. Each scan took about 60–90 s per technique to determine the volumes of tomatoes, mushrooms durian, depending on the durian shape. and strawberries from their photographs. Compared to the The 3D image file had an STL (Standard Triangle Language, water displacement method, the values of R2 ranged from 0.92 invented by Grimm, 2004) extension. Fig. 4 shows a 3D image for mushrooms to 0.99 for tomatoes. Villordon et al. (2020) from the file compared to the fruit photo. The volume was used a three-dimensional (3D) scanner to determine the volume calculated based on the STL file, as described in the next part. of sweet potato. The 3D scanned volume was highly correlated (R2 = 0.81) with the volume based on water displacement. A three-dimensional (3D) scanner provides a non- destructive means for volume measurement. However, the technique has only been applied to agricultural produce with a smooth surface. The present study investigated the application of a 3D scanning technique in conjunction with computer software to determine the volume of a durian whose shape is complex and spiky. Materials and Methods Durian samples Fig. 1 Sense-RS, short-range coded-light three-dimensional scanner Fruit samples of 42 and 78 Monthong durians from Rayong province (12°53'27.6"N 101°37'08.4"E) harvested in September 2021 and Yala province (6°15'25.2"N 101°24'25.2"E) harvested in October 2021, respectively, were obtained from packing houses and manually sorted by tapping sound into four groups of approximately the same maturity: immature, almost mature, mature and overly mature. The sorting was carried out manually by commercial sorters. The weights of each durian were in the range 2.185–5.655 kg for the Rayong durians and 1.610–6.385 kg for the Yala durians. Method Building a 3D model of a durian from its 3D scan A short-range coded-light 3D scanner, Sense-RS (Rock Hill, SC, USA), as shown in Fig. 1, was used in conjunction Fig. 2 Durian hanging in position for three-dimensional scanning

Resour. 56 (2022) 112–120 the STL volume using Equation 1: Scanned volume=Correction factor × STL volume (1) When a test cylinder was scanned using the equipment in the present study, its actual volume was smaller than the STL volume by a factor of 0.92; therefore, this was used as the correction factor in Equation 1. Durian volume measurement using water displacement method The volume of a durian obtained from the water displacement method is hereinafter referred to as its reference volume. The Fig. 3 Diagram showing scanning process: A→1→B→2→A→3→ water displacement method is a basic method for volume B→4→A→5→B→6→A determination (Mohsenin, 1986). The temperature of water used in each measurement was 25 ± 1°C. The measurement of the reference volume of a durian commenced by weighing the container filled with water (measured in kilograms). Next, the durian was immersed in the water so that only the peduncle was not submerged. The new weight was recorded. The reference volume (measured in liters) was defined as the volume of the water displaced by the durian, calculated using Equation 2, with the weight of the water displaced by a durian (measured in kilograms) calculated using Equation 3. Reference volume = Weight of water displaced by durian / Water density (2) Fig. 4 (A) Actual photo of durian sample; (B) Corresponding three- dimensional model constructed using 3D scanner where the density of water was assumed to be 0.997 kg/L at standard temperature and pressure (25°C and 101.325 kPa). Durian volume calculation from STL file For example, if the displaced water weighed 997 g, then its Calculating the volume of a durian from its STL file volume would be 1 L. (hereinafter referred to as the STL volume) used the Python 3.8 software (Python Software Foundation; https://www.python. Weight of water displaced by durian = org) and a library called numpy-stl containing the function get_ Weight of system with durian immersed - mass_properties that was used in the calculation, based on a Weight of system without durian (3) technique making use of polyhedral mass properties developed by Eberly (2002) for the determination of the volume of a solid Statistical analysis 3D object. Scanned volumes and reference volumes were subjected to STL volume correction regression analysis to determine the coefficient of determination The STL volume required correction using a factor that (R 2) for the derived model. The accuracy of the scanned was determined based on the STL volume of a simple cylinder volumes was based on the standard error of estimate (SEE), whose actual volume was easily determined. The correction given by Equation 4 (Smith, 2015): factor was defined as the ratio between the actual volume and the STL volume. The corrected volume (hereinafter referred to (4) as the scanned volume) of any object could then be related to

Differences between the scanned and reference volumes oddly twisted, as shown in Fig. 5C, making them unfit for of the durian samples were considered significant at the 95% export. The poor results were generally because irregular confidence interval level based on a paired sample t test, using surface furrows were obscured by crowded spikes (as shown in Microsoft Excel (Microsoft Corporation; Redmond, WA, Fig. 5C).

Once the misshapen durians had been discarded from the Results and Discussion analysis, there was still no significant difference between the scanned and reference volumes (p = 0.292). Volume All 78 Yala durians were regularly shaped and suitable for export. Their t test analysis revealed there was no significant The volumes of the durian samples in the present study are difference between the reference and scanned volumes (p = shown in Table 1. The mean reference volumes were 4.069 ± 0.653, Table 2). The volume difference was even lower than 0.915 L and 3.531 ± 1.128 L, for the Rayong and Yala durians, for the Rayong durians based on the higher p value for the Yala respectively. The mean scanned volumes were 4.087 ± 0.910 sample, probably due to the greater number of regular-shaped L and 3.452 ± 1.060 L for the Rayong and Yala durians, samples. respectively. Thus, the durian samples from Yala had a broader All samples from the two provinces were combined and re- volume range than those from Rayong because of their wider analyzed using the t test.

For the regular-shaped durians, the present study recorded Results from statistical analyses better volume measurement agreement than was reported for the image analysis by Rashidi et al. (2009), whose cantaloupe Analysis using t test volume determination had a p-value of 0.207 in the paired For the 42 Rayong durians, the statistical analysis based sample t test. They determined the volume of an axially on the paired t test between the scanned volume and reference symmetric cantaloupe based on a combination of 2D image volume was not significant (p = 0.117), as shown in Table 2. Further inspection of the samples revealed that four durians had unusually high discrepancies between the reference volume and scanned volume, probably because they were misshapen, whereas the others were more regularly shaped. Regular- shaped durians can be evaluated for symmetry once pollination and fertilization are complete (Siriphanich, 2011), with a symmetrical fruit having even carpels all around, as shown in Fig. 5A. If there is incomplete pollination and fertilization, some carpels are smaller and the durians are considered to be Fig. 5 (A) Regular-shaped, symmetrical durian; (B) Regular-shaped but asymmetrical, as shown in Fig. 5B.

The technique produced an average relative percentage difference of 2.18%, which was Reference volume = (a + b) × Scanned volume (4) less accurate than that of the present study (1.06%). However, the discrepancy was understandable for three reasons. First, where a is the intercept value and b is the regression their scanner and 3D reconstruction software were different. coefficient. For the Rayong durians, the equation had an R2 value 0.948 (Table 3) for all 42 durians and an R2 value of 0.987 when the misshapen durians were excluded. For the Yala durians, the R2 value was 0.996, which was consistent with the results from the t test analysis. For the combined regular-shaped samples from the two provinces, the regression analysis had an R2 value of 0.991. The SEE of the combined analysis was 0.106, which was better than for the Rayong analysis. The relationship as revealed by regression analysis between the reference volume and the scanned volume based on the combined samples is shown in Fig. 6. The R2 value (0.991) of the spiky-surfaced durian in the present study was higher than for smooth-surfaced sweet potato (R2 = 0.81) that was also based on 3D scanning (Villordon Fig. 6 Regression of three-dimensional (3D) scan volumes on volumes et al., 2020).

Third, durians are much bigger than sweet potatoes, and therefore give better resolution. The authors declare that there are no conflicts of interest.
