Prototype one

AgriBot Harvester

A compact autonomous machine intended to straddle one ground-level strawberry row and harvest the adjacent row with two articulated side arms.

02

Selected exterior direction

Professional farm equipment with subtle personality.

The shell protects the compute, battery, safety controls, and drive systems while leaving the working-side manipulators serviceable. The AgriBot face remains the brand signature rather than a literal humanoid character.

Two modular arms

Expandable architecture, crop-specific end effectors, and independent workspaces.

Independent safety

A dedicated safety controller remains separate from AI perception and mission planning.

Field navigation

4WD mobility, adjustable track, RTK, LiDAR, depth sensing, and local obstacle protection.

Manipulator architecture

Two arms, one carefully bounded plant workspace.

The final rail and arm geometry remains a validation item. The current visual anchor keeps the arms on the working side, close to the crop, with enough articulation for foliage handling, stem access, inspection, and package placement.

Comp 2Manipulator architecture alternatives

Per-fruit cycle

A repeatable seven-step harvest action.

01

Identify

Resolve the plant and retrieve its longitudinal record.

02

Inspect

Use visible, NIR, thermal, depth, and controlled light.

03

Move foliage

Expose the target without damaging crown or leaves.

04

Grip

Stabilize the berry with three soft silicone fingers.

05

Snip

Cut the stem with a guarded, cleanable scissor tool.

06

Grade

Inspect and weigh after picking; route defects separately.

07

Place

Orient the accepted fruit into its assigned retail package.
