Robots are very likely to play an important role in tomato harvesting in the near future. In fact, significant progress is already being made in this area. For example, Syngenta Vegetable Seeds has collaborated with Four Growers, Inc. to test the GR-100 robotic picker in tomato research. This robot uses cameras, sensors and other tools to collect a large amount of data while harvesting the fruits.
