A peduncle detection method of tomato for autonomous harvesting [PDF]
Complex & Intelligent Systems, 2021 AbstractFor automating the harvesting of bunches of tomatoes in a greenhouse, the end-effector needs to reach the exact cutting point and adaptively adjust the pose of peduncles. In this paper, a method is proposed for peduncle cutting point localization and pose estimation.
