FRESQO: Freshness Recording System for Fish Quality Observation
Dates: 05/2018 – 04/2021
Funded by: : Greek Operational Program for Fisheries and the Sea 2014-2020
Project Coordinator: I. Ioannidis (Athina Research Center)
PI for FORTH:P. Tsakalides
Funding: total : € 478,024,FORTH-ICS cost/funding: € 130,137
Summary: The main objective of the FRESQO project is the construction of an innovative product (hardware and software) which will allow the automatic recognition of the freshness of the most important commercial catches of the Greek market with possibility of expanding the detection facilities to an unlimited set of marketable and non-marketable fish. This product will essentially consist of a small (portable) spectral camera which, with a simple photograph of the fish, can provide specific indications about the freshness of a fish. The camera will communicate wired or wireless with a small-sized controller that will communicate with the specialized repository to collect and manage the relevant data as a supporting independent infrastructure (multiple capture images, chemical analysis data and organoleptic measurements as well as auxiliary data for export safer conclusions).
