Harvesting with RoboVeg
RoboVeg has been designed to be operated
by just one person. This individual drives the tractor, but is also the harvester's operator
and will therefore require some prior training.
RoboVeg has been tested successfully
on a number of commonly grown varieties
of broccoli such as Ironman and Parthenon. With A.I. (artificial intelligence) at the heart
of the vision system, adapting RoboVeg
to others is a straight forward adaptation.

The grower can be very specific in terms
of cutting instructions. The size range can
be determined to within a few millimetres
and the preferred length of stalk can also
be specified.
As RoboVeg collects and communicates data
in real time as it traverses the fields, both
the operator and farm office staff will be able to keep abreast of progress against targets
as well as make commercially advantageous decisions and assessments on the spot.
RoboVeg has the potential to offer yield-mapping functions in real-time and also
to allow access to historical data and maps.
