Combining Local and Global Viewpoint Planning for Fruit Coverage

Tobias Zaenker, Chris Lehnert, Chris McCool +1

Obtaining 3D sensor data of complete plants or plant parts (e.g., the crop or fruit) is difficult due to their complex structure and a high degree of occlusion. However, especially…

Viewpoint Planning for Fruit Size and Position Estimation

Tobias Zaenker, Claus Smitt, Chris McCool +1

Modern agricultural applications require knowledge about the position and size of fruits on plants. However, occlusions from leaves typically make obtaining this information diffic…

3D Move to See: Multi-perspective visual servoing for improving object views with semantic segmentation

Chris Lehnert, Dorian Tsai, Anders Eriksson +1

In this paper, we present a new approach to visual servoing for robotics, referred to as 3D Move to See (3DMTS), based on the principle of finding the next best view using a 3D cam…

In-Field Peduncle Detection of Sweet Peppers for Robotic Harvesting: a comparative study

Chris Lehnert, Chris McCool, Tristan Perez

Robotic harvesting of crops has the potential to disrupt current agricultural practices. A key element to enabling robotic harvesting is to safely remove the crop from the plant wh…
