Optical sorting (sometimes called digital sorting) is the automated process of sorting solid products using cameras and/or lasers.. Depending on the types of sensors used and the software-driven intelligence of the image processing system, optical sorters can recognize an object's color, size, shape, structural properties and chemical composition.

A color sorter discarding unripe, overripe or otherwise unsuitable coffee fruits. Color sorters are used in the food processing industry, such as coffee, nuts, and oil crops with the goal of separating items that are discolored, toxic (such as ergot), or not as ripe as required. Compared with manual sorting, machines are more efficient than ...
An automated storage and retrieval system (ASRS or AS/RS) consists of a variety of computer-controlled systems for automatically placing and retrieving loads from defined storage locations. [1] Automated storage and retrieval systems (AS/RS) are typically used in applications where: There is a very high volume of loads being moved into and out ...
The sorting and assembly machinery is made up of three subunits, Sam35, Sam37, and Sam50, of which Sam50 is embedded within the outer mitochondrial membrane. [2] Both Sam35 and Sam37 are located on the cytosolic face of the SAM complex are peripheral membrane proteins that are not essential for survival. [3]
Flow cytometry (FC) is a technique used to detect and measure the physical and chemical characteristics of a population of cells or particles. [1][2][3][4] In this process, a sample containing cells or particles is suspended in a fluid and injected into the flow cytometer instrument. The sample is focused to ideally flow one cell at a time ...
A Nassi–Shneiderman diagram (NSD) in computer programming is a graphical design representation for structured programming. [1] This type of diagram was developed in 1972 by Isaac Nassi and Ben Shneiderman who were both graduate students at Stony Brook University. [2] These diagrams are also called structograms, [3] as they show a program's ...
A tilt-tray sorter is a mechanical assembly similar to a conveyor belt but instead of a continuous belt, it consists of individual trays traveling in the same direction. A tilt-tray sorter can be configured in an inline (AKA over/under) formation, or in a continuous-loop. Items are loaded onto the passing trays at the front end of the sorter ...
Punched card sorter. A punched card sorter is a machine for sorting decks of punched cards. Sorting was a major activity in most facilities that processed data on punched cards using unit record equipment. The work flow of many processes required decks of cards to be put into some specific order as determined by the data punched in the cards.
