Abstract: An improvement in robotic harvesting machines. A robotic harvester that consists of robotic arm(s) mounted on vehicles that can pick low-lying fruits and vegetables in all weather, 24 hours per day, 7 days per week, without damaging delicate crops. This robotic harvester is unique because it can find ripe crops such as strawberries, pick them, pack them and in some cases transport them to a storage area with no damage. This robotic harvester 1) Uses an advanced system to find ripe fruit, utilizing an innovative arrangement of state-of-the-art sensors; 2) Uses an innovative approach to picking delicate fruit, including a custom cutter/grasping design that does not touch the fruit or crops, only the stem; and 3) Uses proprietary control software.
