Durian is renowned as the king of the fruit. Each year durian is highly sought by both local and foreigner. The damage durian will rot easily contributing to yield losses. The work burden of searching and collecting the falling fruit, cleaning the debris, classification according type and grade, and weighing the fruit proof the hardship in production, data keeping and marketing. Due to this, we have come up with new innovation to solve the problem. This innovation using the sensor combine with safety net to automatically record the data from the failing durian such as plot of falling, type, weight and time of falling. It also will notify the collector on whereabouts the fruit exact location. The net is use to ensure the durian does not fall to the ground and split open and the fruit is clean from dirt and leaves.
