Abstract:Agricultural robotics has emerged as a research area within robotics, with a particular focus on designing end effectors that are adapted to the physical characteristics of the target fruits. Acquiring a comprehensive understanding of the physical and mechanical properties specific to tomato fruits not only minimizes mechanical damage during grasping processes but also serves as a foundation for the optimal design of gripping components. In this study, the Syngenta Sibede variety of tomatoes was used as the ex… Show more
