I am curious about this. How do you define a measure for fruit symmetry? Is there an existing standard or accepted procedure? I can imagine that a major challenge is to find the optimal axis of symmetry / mirror plane: the axis/plane that maximizes your symmetry measure. I cannot recall any plugin that can do this, but maybe I am wrong.

Subject: Fruit symmetry analysis

Hi,
I've only just discovered ImageJ, and hope to use it as a tool for my
thesis. I have been applying treatments to strawberry plants and want to see
how this may affect the symmetry of the fruit produced. I have images of the
sliced fruit scanned in.
I am sure I can use ImageJ to analyse this somehow, but the plugins I looked
at didn't seem appropriate.
Does anyone know how I could use ImageJ to analyse the symmetry of the
fruit?
Thank you for any help.
