AUTOMATED COCONUT SHREDDING/GRATING SYSTEMAn automated coconut shredding/grating system (100) includes a clamping mechanism (101) for clamping a coconut shell onto a rotatable chuck. A blade assembly (102) includes a blade head (1) having arc-shaped blades (2) configured radially outward from a central axis of a tubular base (3), such that each of the arc-shaped blades (2) are equidistant relative to each other. The drive mechanism (4) actuates the tubular base (3) along a direction parallel or perpendicular to the central axis of the tubular base (3). The image processing sensor captures images of the coconut shell and the blade head (1). The control circuitry analyzes the captured images of the coconut shell and the blade head (1), determines a portion of the coconut shell containing coconut meat, and actuates the tubular base (3) to position the blade head (1) to cut the determined portion of the coconut shell.
