The Wow Moment
A farmer watches their phone as a gondola glides past a durian tree, and the screen lights up with a 3D visualization showing '87% ripeness - harvest in 4.2 days' for every single fruit, turning what was once a guessing game into a precise science that predicts exactly when each durian will reach its million-dollar flavor peak.
