Paper Title
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.
