Feature: Mobile app helps Israeli farmers choose best time to harvest fruits
AclarTech, a start-up company, has developed an app called AclaroMeter that uses a sensor with infrared rays to assess the ripeness of fruits and vegetables. The app aims to change the way the food supply chain works by providing accurate data on the condition of the produce. Currently, the app works on tomatoes and grapes, but the goal is to extend it to all varieties of fruits. The technology has the potential to significantly reduce food waste, which is worth hundreds of billions of dollars annually. AclarTech is cooperating with Volcani Center and the Israeli Agricultural Ministry to further develop and implement the technology.

How do you know if those tomatoes are ripe for picking?
AclarTech, an agriculture technology company, has developed a tool called AclaroMeter that can determine the quality and ripeness of fruit on the spot. The company was founded in December 2016 and has received an investment from Boaz Chalamish. The AclaroMeter combines AclarTechs proprietary algorithm with Consumer Physics SCiO handheld molecular sensor to provide a grade on the quality and ripeness of fruit. The company has started beta trials with potential customers and plans to roll out the product globally. AclarTech aims to improve the efficiency and quality of fresh agricultural produce and become the standard for fruit quality and ripeness.

AclarTech's app helps farmers pick ripe fruit
Israeli start-up AclarTech has launched an app that uses sensors to determine the best time to pick fruit. The app, called AclaroMeter, uses image processing, machine learning and the wisdom of the crowd to assess the quality and ripeness of fruit. The companys product is based on a smartphone app and a component the size of a cigarette lighter, which sends infrared rays towards the fruit. Using changes in light frequency, information can be obtained about the fruits internal elements, and it can then be concluded whether or not it is ripe. The company is initially focusing on grapes, but its solution could be relevant to most fruit in the future.
