Legende HSF Series AI-Driven Sorting System

Tailored single-belt models for blueberry sorting. Powered by deep integration of hyperspectral imaging and AI-driven high-resolution VIS imaging, coupled with high-performance air ejectors, the system efficiently identifies and rejects soft berries, discolorations, surface blemishes, and foreign material, delivering deep-learning–refined sorting precision.

The sorting of premium blueberries faces deep-seated challenges that traditional optical systems struggle to address. Defects such as internal bruising, latent mold, and abnormal moisture levels often do not manifest as surface discoloration or physical damage. As a result, neither the human eye nor RGB visible-light cameras can detect these issues in time during the sorting process. For processors supplying high-end blueberries, these invisible hazards pose significant quality risks: fruits with hidden defects may deteriorate further during storage, transportation, or shelf display, severely impacting product quality, shelf life, and brand reputation. This can even lead to customer complaints and returns, weakening the company's competitiveness in the premium market.


The Legende HSF Series is an intelligent dual-sensor sorting system tailored for this exact scenario. By deeply integrating hyperspectral imaging (HSI) with high-resolution RGB (HR-RGB) VIS imaging technology, and leveraging proprietary AI deep learning algorithms, it performs real-time scanning of blueberries to conduct dual non-destructive evaluation of both internal and external quality. Paired with high-performance air ejectors, it achieves ultra-high-precision rejection of defective berries and foreign material within milliseconds.


Empowered by AI-driven surface feature recognition, the system continuously learns from real production data, steadily improving its detection accuracy. This means the equipment's performance is not static after deployment; instead, it continuously adapts and improves as production data accumulates, delivering stable and reliable sorting performance. This enables blueberry processors consistently deliver batches with extremely low surface defect rates. Meanwhile, hyperspectral imaging (HSI) efficiently identifies hidden defects that are difficult to detect with conventional methods, breaking through the technical limitations of traditional VIS imaging. This intelligent dual-sensor sorting system helps processors reduce false rejection rates and reliance on manual labor while ensuring high rejection accuracy, achieving more reliable and intelligent quality control for premium blueberries.
