摘要: Robotic systems and specialized end-effectors provide for automated harvesting of produce such as fresh market apples. An underactuated design using tendons and flexure joints with passive compliance increases robustness to position error, overcoming a significant limitation of previous fruit harvesting end-effectors. Some devices use open-loop control, provide a shape-adaptive grasp, and produce contact forces similar to those used during optimal hand picking patterns. Other benefits include relatively low weight, low cost, and simplicity.

摘要: A robotic fruit picking system includes an autonomous robot that includes a positioning subsystem that enables autonomous positioning of the robot using a computer vision guidance system. The robot also includes at least one picking arm and at least one picking head, or other type of end effector, mounted on each picking arm to either cut a stem or branch for a specific fruit or bunch of fruits or pluck that fruit or bunch. A computer vision subsystem analyses images of the fruit to be picked or stored and a control subsystem is programmed with or learns picking strategies using machine learning techniques. A quality control (QC) subsystem monitors the quality of fruit and grades that fruit according to size and/or quality. The robot has a storage subsystem for storing fruit in containers for storage or transportation, or in punnets for retail.

摘要: An integrated circuit system, structure and/or component is provided that includes an integrated electrical power source in a form of a unique, environmentally-friendly energy harvesting element or component. The energy harvesting component provides a mechanism for generating autonomous renewable energy, or a renewable energy supplement, in the integrated circuit system, structure and/or component. The energy harvesting element includes a first conductor layer, a low work function layer, a dielectric layer, and a second conductor layer that are particularly configured to promote electron migration from the low work function layer, through the dielectric layer, to the facing surface of the second conductor layer in a manner that develops an electric potential between the first conductor layer and the second conductor layer. An energy harvesting component includes a plurality of energy harvesting elements electrically connected to one another to increase a power output of the electric harvesting component.

摘要: An agricultural system comprises a stalk-diameter sensing system associated with a row unit and configured to sense diameter-related data of respective stalks and generate signals based on the diameter-related data. Deck plates associated with the row unit are spaced apart to define a deck plate spacing. A deck plate positioning system is coupled to at least one of the deck plates to adjust the deck plate spacing. A control system is configured to communicate with the stalk-diameter sensing system and the deck plate positioning system. The control system is configured to receive the signals, determine a statistical representative stalk diameter for a sample of stalks based on the diameter-related data, determine a target deck plate spacing based on the statistical representative stalk diameter, and output a control signal to command the deck plate positioning system to set the deck plate spacing based on the target deck plate spacing.

摘要: An apparatus is provided which analyzes spatially-variable harvest data for one of the passes made by an agricultural harvesting vehicle through an agricultural field. The harvesting vehicle supports an implement for harvesting crop during each pass through the field. The apparatus includes a digital memory, an electronic display, a processor circuit and an operator-actuatable input device. The digital memory stores a geo-referenced map of the field including harvest data representative of at least one sensed parameter of the harvested crop and pass data representative of the plurality of passes of the harvesting vehicle through the field. The processor circuit is configured to read the geo-referenced map of the field from the memory and to generate a display signal therefrom which, when applied to the electronic display, generates visible indicia of at least a portion of the field and at least one sensed parameter of the harvested crop. The operator-actuatable input device is coupled to the processor circuit and configured to generate an input signal which identifies one of the passes of the harvesting vehicle. The processor circuit analyzes the harvest data representative of the at least one sensed parameter of the harvested crop that was harvested by the implement during the identified pass of the vehicle, and generates the display signal to cause the electronic display to display a result of the analysis in association with the identified pass of the vehicle.

摘要: A method and control system are disclosed for adjusting orientations of knockdown rollers for sugarcane harvesters. An upper knockdown roller may be moved along a first adjustment path using a first actuator. A lower knockdown roller may be moved along a second adjustment path using a second actuator. A substantially tangential alignment may be maintained for an outer diameter of the upper knockdown roller and an outer diameter of the lower knockdown roller with respect to a reference point along a cutting path of the base cutter assembly, during or after movement of the upper and lower knockdown rollers.
