Robots That Can Harvest In The Greenhouse
The use of image processing software and robots has spawned new and high-tech harvesting systems for high-value crops such as tomatoes. The harvesting robots in the greenhouse corridors can harvest the ripe fruits by separating them from the unripe ones and pack them in boxes.
- 24 hour harvest
- less workload
- Data analysis
Working safely side by side with humans, robots can also perform manual tasks such as sorting plants apart. For example, they can optimize the placement of plants.
- Improved plant quality
- Savings in the use of water, insecticides, herbicides and fertilizers
- lower production cost
Robots in the barn assist in replenishing feed, milking cows and removing manure.
- increased performance
- Reduced farmer workload
- A healthier environment for cows
- Hygiene even on different floor surfaces
- Data analysis
Drones equipped with multispectral and photographic cameras; can monitor the health and growth of crops and predict crop yields. In addition to being able to carry and apply payloads such as seeds, herbicides, fertilizers and water, drones can also charge themselves at weatherproof charging stations and transmit analysis data.
