Researchers have developed a novel framework called CucumberVision for non-contact estimation of greenhouse cucumber lengths, crucial for commercial production. The system utilizes an Intel RealSense D435 RGB-D camera and employs a YOLO26n model for segmentation, refined by SAM (ViT-B backbone) for precise masks. A new medial arc spline method (M5) demonstrated superior accuracy, outperforming other evaluated techniques by computing arc length from a cubic spline fitted to the 3D medial axis. AI
