Abstract
This paper describes an Automated Visual
Inspection System SIVATUN" for quality control of Tuna Meat
which automate manual inspection operation. Depending on
whether tuna are reared in cages or in the open sea and
depending on the method of capture (electroslaughtering,
shooting, etc.), differences are observed and changes take place in
the organic nature of Blue Fin Tuna (Thunnus Thynnus) meat,
affecting appearance and quality. These changes are caused by an
increase and accumulation of lactate, which negatively affects the
quality. This drop in quality translates into loss of value of the
meat in Japanese tuna markets (Tsukiji market and Sashimi
market are the main destinations of tuna captured off the
southeast coast of Spain). In order to evaluate these changes,
Japanese experts are employed to carry out visual inspections,
which therefore constitute a subjective assessment. This paper
describes the development of an automated visual inspection
system that can analyze, ...
