  • Publication number: 20230399136
    Abstract: An item packing system (100) configured to sort and/or pack vine fruit such as bunches of grapes into containers is disclosed herein. The system comprises a first robotic arm (110) comprising at least one first end effector (120) for cutting vine fruit, a second robotic arm (114) comprising at least one second end effector (122) for holding and manipulating a vine fruit for packing into a container, at least one camera (155) for providing image data of the vine fruit, and a controller configured to receive the image data of the vine fruit and to make a determination of the weight of the vine fruit based on the received image data. The controller is configured to control the at least one first end effector of the first robotic arm to cut the vine fruit based on the determined weight of the vine fruit, and the controller is configured to control the at least one second end effector of the second robotic arm to hold and manipulate the cut vine fruit into a container (142).

  • Publication number: 20220304150
    Abstract: A substrate for use in an electronic skin is disclosed herein. The substrate comprises a base polymer layer, and a first intermediate polymer layer attached to the base polymer layer by a first adhesive layer. The first intermediate polymer layer comprises a first intermediate polymer in which electron-rich groups are linked directly to one another or by optionally substituted C1-4 alkanediyl groups. A first conductive layer is attached to the first intermediate polymer layer by a second adhesive layer or by multiple second adhesive layers between which a second intermediate polymer layer or a second conductive layer is disposed.
