Method for realizing batch-based traceability for pork based on QR code
11596157 · 2023-03-07 · ·

Disclosed is a method for realizing batch-based traceability for pork based on a QR code. Based on the QR code, user information is added to a web address carried by the QR code to realize the traceability for the pork. The method includes: 1) registering basic information of pigs in breeding and brokering processes; 2) printing an initial traceability QR code of a carcass in a slaughtering process; 3) adding user information to the initial traceability QR code in a selling process, and updating the user information to the traceability system; and 4) scanning the traceability QR code to recall data of the traceability system in a catering process to achieve transparent information. The pork and pork products are traced from production process to the selling process.

SHRIMP PROCESSING SYSTEM
20230067525 · 2023-03-02 ·

A shrimp processing system conveys raw peeled shrimps to an imaging chamber in which shrimp bits and shrimps with residual shell are detected and diverted from the stream of acceptable shrimps allowed to pass on to downstream processing. An ultraviolet (UV) light source in the imaging chamber is constantly on. A visual inspection system takes images of the passing stream of shrimp when a white-light source is turned on to illuminate an exposure region to detect bits, clumps of shrimps, and acceptable individual shrimps. The visual inspection system takes images of the passing stream when the white-light source is turned off and the exposure region is subjected only to ultraviolet radiation. The visual inspection system detects shrimps with residual shell in the V images. Shrimp bits and shrimps with residual shell are diverted from the stream of shrimps by air jet nozzles to corresponding reject destinations.

DEVICES, SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR SORTING AND LABELLING FOOD PRODUCTS

Devices, systems and methods for sorting and labeling food products are provided. Respective spectra of food products for a plurality of segments of a line are received at a controller from at least one line-scan dispersive spectrometer configured to acquire respective spectra of the food products for the plurality of segments of the line. The controller applies one or more machine learning algorithms to the respective spectra to classify the plurality of segments according to at least one of one or more food parameters. The controller controls one or more of a sorting device and a labeling device according to classifying the plurality of segments to cause the food products to be one or more of sorted and labeled according to the at least one of the one or more food parameters.
