Abstract :
Four varieties of rice grain were imaged with OCT technique. The structures of waxy rice endosperm were analyzed with B-scan image and the attenuation coefficients of four rice grains were calculated with averaged A-scan signal. Attenuation coefficient was also used to identify different varieties of rice grains.
