AUTONOMOUS ROBOTS FOR AGRICULTURE: ROBOTICS OF VEGETABLE HARVESTING AND SUPPORT

Abstract
The integration of autonomous robots into agriculture has shown promise in addressing challenges such as labor shortages, rising production costs, and the need for increased efficiency and sustainability. This review paper focuses on the application of robotics in vegetable harvesting and support tasks within agricultural settings.The paper begins by exploring the current state of the art in robot technology, emphasizing advancements in sensing, perception, manipulation, and navigation systems. It then delves into the specific challenges associated with vegetable harvesting, including variability in crop appearance, complex environmental conditions, and delicate handling requirements. Through a comprehensive review of recent literature and technological developments, this paper provides insights into the current capabilities, limitations, and future directions of autonomous robots in vegetable harvesting and support tasks. It underscores the potential of robotics to revolutionize agriculture by increasing productivity, reducing labor dependency, and promoting sustainability in food production.
