The human labour required for tree crop harvesting is a major cost component in fruit production and is increasing. To address this, many existing research works have sought to demonstrate commercially viable robotic harvesting for tree…
Most existing robotic harvesters utilize a unimanual approach; a single arm grasps the crop and detaches it, either via a detachment movement, or by cutting its stem with a specially designed gripper/cutter end-effector. However, such…
Strawberry harvesting robots faced persistent challenges such as low integration of visual perception, fruit-gripper misalignment, empty grasping/misgrasp, and strawberry slippage from the gripper due to insufficient gripping force, all of…
Rising global food demand and harsh working conditions make fruit harvest an important domain to automate. Peduncle localization is an important step for any automated fruit harvesting system, since fruit separation techniques are highly…
Challenges in strawberry picking made selective harvesting robotic technology demanding. However, selective harvesting of strawberries is complicated forming a few scientific research questions. Most available solutions only deal with a…
