Quinoa Phenotyping and Seed Grading
Automated quinoa phenotyping for morphology distributions, color index, uniformity scoring, and defect/purity screening at scale.

Problem
Quinoa seeds vary in size and shape; traditional grading is too slow and subjective for large breeding programs. Detecting off-types, discoloration, or subtle defects consistently is difficult by eye.
Vibe solution
Imaging-based analysis that produces full distributions of size/shape and color index across the entire sample, plus defect/purity indicators and severity scoring. Exports support trial comparisons and QC thresholds.
Measured outcomes
Faster grading and quantifiable data for seed quality assurance and research, with standardized, structured reporting per sample.
