arXiv:2601. 02085v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Strawberry-harvesting robots faced challenges such as poor visual perception, gripper misalignment, empty grasp/misgrasp, and slippage, which reduced harvesting stability and efficiency.
arXiv:2606. 26151v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While autonomous rovers have become indispensable to precision farming, achieving consistent operational safety remains a critical challenge.
Commercial greenhouse cucumber production is graded by fruit length, which drives harvest scheduling, labour allocation, and logistics. Manual measurement with thread or caliper is accurate but infeasible at commercial scale.
arXiv:2606. 03134v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Imitation-learning policies for robot manipulation inherit the quality of the success labels attached to their training episodes, and those labels are usually produced by the robot's own success check.
arXiv:2606. 02045v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Artificial intelligence provides a practical framework for crop damage assessment from imagery data, supporting early decision-making in agricultural management.
arXiv:2607. 00530v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Improvements in the technical performance of human--robot interaction (HRI) systems do not automatically translate into differences that human users can detect during live interaction.
arXiv:2606. 24450v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Perceiving physical contact is fundamental to dexterous manipulation.
arXiv:2608. 06404v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Accurate 3D crop monitoring underpins data-driven precision agriculture by enabling field-scale analysis of plant structure, growth dynamics, and management response.
arXiv:2606. 31200v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Generalizable robotic grasping in cluttered environments is essential for deploying manipulators in unstructured human spaces, yet existing VLM-based methods rely on visual similarity for object matching, neglecting physical affordances such as handle graspability and material fragility, and operate open-loop without spatial reasoning or failure recovery, limiting their effectiveness when objects are densely packed or physically diverse.
arXiv:2608. 00946v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Existing 6-DoF grasp detectors typically rank grasp candidates by detector confidence.
arXiv:2606. 12218v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Understanding spatial distribution of fallow land is important for optimizing the food-water (FW) nexus, given fallowing's role in crop rotation and water conservation.
arXiv:2607. 11686v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Low-cost unmanned ground vehicles are often used in indoor places like warehouses, inspection corridors, and farm rows, where painted floor lines guide the robot.
Accurate six-degree-of-freedom (6-DOF) motion estimation is essential for robotic manipulation, autonomous systems, and structural displacement monitoring. Conventional 3D-2D methods estimate absolute camera poses independently at each time and recover platform motion through camera-to-platform extrinsics, making them sensitive to extrinsic calibration errors, especially for micromotion.
