Abstract: A method for harvesting fruit or vegetable is disclosed, the method comprising providing a tractor (1); providing a plurality of storage bins (2) in a supply location, the storage bins con- figured to store fruit or vegetable; deploying the plurality of storage bins (2) in a harvesting area (3) by means of the tractor (1); providing a harvester (5); harvesting fruit or vegetable by the harvester (5) and storing the fruit or vegetable in the plurality of storage bins (2) deployed in the harvesting area (3); relocating filled storage bins filled with fruit or vegetable from the harvesting area (3) to a storage location by the tractor; providing an operation control and management system (6) comprising one or more data processors and a data storage device and configured to receive and process data; receiving storage bin location data indicative of a location of the storage bins from the plurality of storage bins (2); receiving harvesting data indicative of at least one harvesting process parameter in the operation control and man- agement system (6); and providing tractor control data in the operation control and manage- ment system (6) in response to the at least one harvesting process parameter. An operation mode of the tractor (1) for at least one of deploying the plurality of storage bins (2) and relo- cating the filled storage bins is controlled according to the tractor control data. Furthermore, a system for harvesting fruit or vegetable is provided.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for on-site identification of damaged fruits and ripeness assessment, immediately after picking/harvesting, thereby enabling discarding damaged fruits on-site without delivering such damaged fruits to a warehouse, which also reduces harvesting time and improves harvesting efficiency. The method of the invention enables improved sorting compared to known robotic harvesters as it is based on a 360° inspection of the fruit and without having the leaves and branches interfere. The method of the invention further enables a preliminary sorting of the fruits according to determined fruits' grade based on identified blemishes in each fruit.

Abstract: A vacuum-based fruit gripper assembly for use in a fruit-picking machine is provided. Said fruit gripper assembly comprising: a support having a main axis and receivable onto a fruit-picking machine, said support comprising an aperture therethrough for communication with a source of suction generator; and a flexible gripping suction-nipple for engaging a fruit, mounted on said support and connected to said aperture, wherein said nipple is equipped with an interlock mechanism and has two configurations: a first open-configuration when the nipple is not attached to a fruit and no vacuum/suction is generated, in which said interlock mechanism is open and the nipple is free to twist; and a second locked/crammed-configuration when the nipple is attached to a fruit and vacuum/suction is applied, in which said interlock mechanism is locked thereby preventing twisting of the nipple.
