At present, physical characteristics is the most important feature in determining fruit maturity. It is assessed by analyzing its external features such as colour, shape, size and texture. These features may not be applicable to certain types of fruits. This is the case for Harumanis mangoes, as size and colour does not determine its maturity. Here, it is the shape of the mango that plays a vital role for maturity and quality measurement. However, manual observations in determining fruit's maturity is too subjective and inconsistent. Hence, the computer vision method (CVM) was adopted, which involved image acquisition, pre-processing, segmentation, feature extraction and classification. For validation, experts assessment were sought where findings showed that the classification of CVM for maturity stage based on shape was consistent with human vision. © 2019 IEEE. %Z cited By 0; Conference of 4th International Conference and Workshops on Recent Advances and Innovations in Engineering, ICRAIE 2019 ; Conference Date: 28 November 2019 Through 29 November 2019; Conference Code:158713
