A dedicated review of robotic pruners: current technologies, challenges, and future directions
In light of labor shortages, the transition towards automation and robotic pruning has become indispensable in modern agriculture. Recent advancements in pruning robotic technologies, particularly through integrating advanced machine vision algorithms, have addressed challenges in accurate branch detection for pruning tasks, significantly enhancing pruning operations’ precision and overall performance. While numerous studies have been conducted on pruning robots, comprehensive reviews about the conducted research projects are scant. This review seeks to offer a fresh perspective on the key components of pruning robots, including the perception system, platform, manipulator, end-effector, path-planning algorithms, and control systems. By evaluating existing research, this study identifies the most effective solutions to current challenges and provides forward-looking recommendations for improving the design and functionality of the essential components of a robotic pruning system.
期刊介绍:
Computers and Electronics in Agriculture provides international coverage of advancements in computer hardware, software, electronic instrumentation, and control systems applied to agricultural challenges. Encompassing agronomy, horticulture, forestry, aquaculture, and animal farming, the journal publishes original papers, reviews, and applications notes. It explores the use of computers and electronics in plant or animal agricultural production, covering topics like agricultural soils, water, pests, controlled environments, and waste. The scope extends to on-farm post-harvest operations and relevant technologies, including artificial intelligence, sensors, machine vision, robotics, networking, and simulation modeling. Its companion journal, Smart Agricultural Technology, continues the focus on smart applications in production agriculture.
