Harvest Croo Robotics field tests autonomous strawberry-picking vehicle

Harvest Croo Robotics is field testing an autonomous vehicle designed to help plant and pick strawberries, according to a report on ThePacker.com.

The new vehicle looks rather unlike your typical farm vehicle, and is designed to straddle six strawberry beds as it moves along. It uses GPS navigation, LiDAR vision and carries 16 robots which will do the actual planting and picking of the strawberries.

Picked strawberries will then be moved to the platform level for further inspection and grading. [Read more…] about Harvest Croo Robotics field tests autonomous strawberry-picking vehicle
