Abstract
Advances in optical sensing technology have led to new approaches to monitoring and determining crop seed vigor. In order to improve crop performance to secure reliable yield and food supply, calibrating seed vigor, purity, germination rate, and clarity is very critical to the future of the agriculture/horticulture industry. Traditional methods of seed vigor determination are lengthy in process, labor intensive, and sometimes inaccurate, which can lead to false yield prediction and faulty decision-making. Optical sensing technology offers rapid, accurate, and non-destructive calibration methods to help the industry develop accurate decisions for seed usage and agronomic evaluation. In this review, we hope to provide a summary of current research in the optical sensing technology used in seed vigor assessments.
