For food safety, the food industry employs high quality grain processing machinery to remove diseased grains with contaminants, foreign seeds and stones, etc. In addition to food safety, value is added to the product by grading the grains. E.g. Low protein grains, high protein grains etc.

This robot is designed to sort a container full of a unique mix of Ghanaian grains (just to name a few maize, kidney beans, large beans, cocoa bean, coffee beans, cola nuts, fruit berries, etc) by colour into bins in the fastest time possible. Also, there would some special requirements by the food scientist who wants to conduct some experiments.
