Abstract
A robotic harvesting system includes a base, a gantry system, a robotic arm, and a control system. The base is configured to move in a direction of travel. The gantry system is coupled to the base. The gantry includes a linear transport that is configured to move along the base in substantially a same direction or opposite direction as the direction of travel. The linear transport is coupled to a rod that extends downwards from a top portion of the gantry system. A robotic arm is mounted to the rod at a first joint. A control system is configured to send one or more corresponding commands that cause the linear transport, the rod, and/or the robotic arm to move.
