Proposal for new image processing application for taste evaluation of sponge cake using 3D range sensor

Abstract

A new image processing application to estimate of the taste of a sponge cake propose is proposed. Depending on the size and number of bubbles on the surface, this method can detect the taste of the sponge cake. Bubbles are detected using 3D image processing; they are then classified, and statistical data are generated. The method is tested using two cakes made from different eggs, and the most delicious cake was successfully detected.
