To address this problem, this study established an online detection system for the water content of fresh tea leaves after harvesting based on near-infrared spectroscopy. The online acquisition and analysis system of the temperature and humidity sensor signal data was developed based on LabVIEW and Python software platforms. Near-infrared spectral data, environmental temperature, and humidity were collected from fresh leaves after harvesting. Spectral data were combined with PLS (partial least squares) to develop a prediction model for the water content of fresh tea leaves. Simultaneously, data communication between LabVIEW and PLC was established, laying the foundation for establishing a feedback mechanism to send the prediction results to the main platform of the lower computer. This provides a more objective and accurate basis for the detection of fresh leaves before processing and regulation during processing, thereby effectively promoting the standardisation and intelligent development of tea-processing equipment.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s23020666","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,1,9]],"date-time":"2023-01-09T06:38:27Z","timestamp":1673246307000},"page":"666","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["Design and Experiment of Online Detection System for Water Content of Fresh Tea Leaves after Harvesting Based on Near Infra-Red Spectroscopy"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"23","author":[{"given":"Shishun","family":"Wang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Engineering, Anhui Agricultural University, Hefei 230036, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Zhengmin","family":"Wu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Tea and Food Science, Anhui Agricultural University, Hefei 230036, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Chengmao","family":"Cao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Engineering, Anhui Agricultural University, Hefei 230036, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4712-7936","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Minhui","family":"An","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Engineering, Anhui Agricultural University, Hefei 230036, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kun","family":"Luo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Engineering, Anhui Agricultural University, Hefei 230036, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Liang","family":"Sun","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Engineering, Anhui Agricultural University, Hefei 230036, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Xiaoran","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Tea and Food Science, Anhui Agricultural University, Hefei 230036, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,1,6]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"Xia, T.
