Popis: An Eggplant Fruit and Shoot Borer (EFSB) is a disease that affects the entirety of the eggplant fruit if not detected. Hence, a detector was proposed in the form of a handheld gun. It was designed and developed to non-invasively classify eggplant fruits that are non-infested and infested with EFSB. Using an Arduino Nano as its microcontroller and a near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) module, insect infestation is determined and displayed through its OLED display. Measured reflectance data through the NIRS module of the detector is then stored inside a MicroSD module for further use. Since the prototype was developed for online monitoring, portability was given of utmost importance, pattering the design in the form of a handheld gun, inside of which was powered by a 9V rechargeable battery. The 3D-printed chassis of the detector houses the aforementioned components and modules, alongside with switches for power and near-infrared detection. Through Support Vector Machine (SVM), the classifier model was trained and developed using Jupyter and was extracted as a C++ code for the Arduino Nano module. Compared with a farmer's traditional performance in terms of accuracy, precision, and speed, the prototype performed better with an accuracy of 84%, precision of 72.83%, and an average speed of 9.736 seconds.
