Last week, the fruit imaging system went live for the first time. It took a few days to iron out all the little deployment problems, and by Tuesday we had it up and running in the factory.
By the end of the second day, it had processed over 110,000 units. Judging by the stats I was collecting, the percentages look like they are tracking the expected values within 5-10%. Given the heuristics are still not finely tuned, it is going surprisingly well from what I can tell.
So a huge congratulations and thanks to Ray, James and Denys, the electronics and control systems wizards behind the project.
That is the first major milestone; a few more to come!
