An individual from Kenya residing in Dubai stunned online viewers upon finding a sophisticated avocado ripeness detector at a nearby supermarket in the city.
-
In contrast to Kenya, where people usually squeeze the fruit manually, this device employs sensors to provide an immediate assessment.
-
The scanner assesses ripeness levels, assisting buyers in selecting the ideal avocado with confidence.
A Kenyan man in Dubai has discovered an ingenious machine used to determine the ripeness of an avocado.
Is there a machine to scan avocados?
In Kenya, people frequently squeeze avocados to check their ripeness, whereas Dubai uses technology for this purpose.
While at the grocery store, the individual known as @ceowycliffe stumbled upon the gadget.
“I have just realised that next to the avocados, there’s this machine. You can get to scan and see whether your avocado is ripe or not,” he said.
Wycliffe then held up one of the fruits to the device.
It took an instant to process and showed the level of ripeness using four dots. The fruit Wycliffe held up had three of them.
“Very firm,” the machine’s verdict said.
He mentioned that you could take it home and enjoy eating the avocado after a couple of days since it isn’t ripe yet.
He tested it with multiple alternatives until he achieved the perfect one.
“Mature and solid, ideal for salads,” the device stated.
Kenyans reacted to the video by saying:
_.nafulamary:
Here in Kenya, the vegetable seller cautions you not to press on the avocados.
Ipalasa:
It is preferable to compress it.
iannoh.__:
I am still amazed that avocados cost us $8 each in the US.

Here in Kenya, the machine acts as the hand – you simply press it.
i.t.s_k.a.r.i.m.i:
“Teknologia.”

There is a particular vegetable seller in Juja who possesses this.

“Because of trust issues, I have to squeeze.”

“You put your girlfriend on that scanner, and you see ‘not ripe’. Premium tears!”
er_ist.kerre:
You have to press the avocado first.
i_n_d_i_a_z_i:
“That is a lot of work. The time it takes to scan, you could have squeezed the avocado.”
Inside Ruto’s high-tech farm
Still on matters technology,
GAPTEKZONE.co.ke
It has been reported that President William Ruto is an ardent supporter of agriculture and possesses extensive farmland spread throughout various areas in Kenya.
The president has allocated funds for advanced agricultural technology at these farms to enhance output. They include an industrial-scale hatcher designed to produce premium quality chicks for commercial sale. Additionally, he cultivates fruits like avocados and mangoes along with practicing apiculture.
Ruto emphasises mechanisation, using disc ploughs to prepare the land more efficiently. These tools enhance soil aeration and drainage, leading to improved crop yields.
Additionally, a video shared by his personal photographer highlighted the use of agricultural drones, showing one preparing for takeoff.
The drone technology is part of modern farming solutions. These innovations are transforming agriculture by providing smart, data-driven support for more effective land and resource management.
