Peach breader

My current project is a peach breeder. It sounds funny doesn't it! It is! It works by stimulating the growth of the cells in peaches particularly, through laser ray light radiation, or L.R.L.R. I am using a color sensor to determine the current state of growth in the peach by measuring the color, and a light sensor to measure the intensity of the laser at any given time. Both sensors are mounted on computer controlled arms that remove the sensors from the peach after measuring has been completed. The peach rotates and is exposed to light radiation for a given period of time. Accepting comments. Take care!
