Why follow this course?

After successfull completion of this course, you have learned:

the basic principles behind different sensing technologies and modeling approaches for analyzing physicochemical properties of fresh produce.
Furthermore, you will understand the capabilities and challenges and can start applying new sensing approaches in your own business.

Is this course for you?

This course is designed for technical professionals responsible for quality assurance, marketability, safety, logistics, research and associated activities in fresh produce supply chains. The target audience consists of persons active in breeding, production, trade, retail, tech developers and equipment builders with a focus on (postharvest) quality.

No prior knowledge on the course topics is required.

Programme & topics

The course offer a mix of lectures, demonstrations, networking, and ample time for discussions and questions. Together, you will explore the challenges of:

Capabilities and challenges of current and future sensing approaches for assessment of fresh horticultural products (fruit, vegetables, flowers and potted plants)
Where and how the different sensing approaches can be used
The novel modelling approaches to make meaning to sensor data
Handling different sensors
