Abstract:A part of technologies of strawberry harvesting robot was researched and an automatic picking mechanism of executive body which in connection with the strawberries planted in hill-culture was developed. Ripe strawberries could be distinguished and located by the machine vision system of the executive body, and the fruits were harvested by gripping and cutting peduncles so as to achieve scatheless picking. Moreover, a method that did not depend on high precise equipments was adopted to control the robot, so the cost was reduced greatly. Experiments of the robot were carried out and the results showed that the success ratio of scatheless picking was more than 90%.
