| Research Abstract |
The otjective of this research is to develop a peach harvesting robot with a function for estimation of the degree of ripeness. For harvesting fruits using machines or robots, we attempted to investigate the relationship of the ripeness of peaches with their color, size, and odor by using cultivating peaches. Based on this investigation, we developed each device for sensing each component, and tested their performance. Further, we built a prototype of an end-effector by using a harvesting mechanism that is based on the principle of the iris diaphragm of a camera. We confirmed the basic performance of that mechanism.
